PURIFICATION OF OILY EMULSIONS WITH LEAF LITTER OF CHERRY AND ROWAN

Abstract: the paper presents the results of a study of the possibility of using leaf litter of cherries and Rowan, widely grown in Russia, for the extraction of oil of industrial grade I-20A from aqueous media. The sorption properties of cherry leaf litter and Rowan leaf litter were also studied. The bulk density, granulometric composition, humidity, pH of the aqueous extract and losses during the calcination of CLL and RLL were determined. High efficiency of purification of water-oil emulsions is established.
