The issue of mixing large amounts of organic wastewater
Thread Content
There are over 40 streams of waste liquid that need to be sorted and mixed together. Each type of waste liquid is also a multi-component mixture; its own compatibility will not be considered for now. I would like to ask what principles apply when mixing organic substances together. The waste liquids contain various alcohols, chlorobenzenes, amines, used lubricants, heat transfer oils, alkanes, and similar compounds, some of which are polymers. Thank you

Whether it is organic or inorganic liquids, all follow the principle of like dissolves like, which is the fundamental principle behind the dissolution process. Each specific situation must be analyzed on its own. First of all, the concept of various alcohols you mentioned is extremely complex – how many types of alcohols are there with 1 to 10 carbon atoms? Have you done any statistics? There are already hundreds of types; just this one category of organic substances in your materials is already this complex, not to mention when other components are added as well. For your question, find a research institution to work on a research project, and prepare plenty of funding for it; without an investment of around ten million, it will be impossible to get things sorted out. .
Ignoring compatibility, I think as long as no reaction occurs, it’s fine to mix them together however

It is best to adopt the principle of \"separating flows and treating water according to its quality\"; different types of wastewater should be treated using appropriate methods, and this is the right approach. I bet there is no \"one-size-fits-all method for wastewater treatment\" in the world; never try to find shortcuts.
One must consider both compatibility and the prevention of chemical reactions; I think these are the main considerations! !
