Abstract
Abstract The method of preparing a coagulant for purification of water from mechanical admixtures consists in that alunite is roasted at a temperature of 520°-620° C. The roasted alunite is leached with a 20-35 per cent aqueous solution of sulphuric acid taken in the quantity of 70-90 per cent of the stoichiometrically required quantity, at a temperature of 80°-100° C. After leaching, roasted alunite is added in the quantity of 10-15 per cent of the weight of the starting alunite. The resultant pulp consists of solid and liquid phases, the liquid phase being an aqueous solution of the end product, while the solid phase is an insoluble residue. The solution is separated from the insoluble residue and the end product is finally isolated from the solution.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
120 words
A method of preparing a coagulant from alunite for purification of water from mechanical admixtures comprising the steps of roasting alunite at a temperature of 520°-620° C.; leaching the roasted alunite at a temperature of 80°-100° C. with a 20-35 percent solution of sulphuric acid in an amount of 70-90 percent of the stoichiometrically required amount; adding roasted alunite to the leached alunite in an amount of 10-15 percent of the weight of the starting alunite to form a pulp consisting of solid and liquid phases, the liquid phase being an aqueous solution of the end product and the solid phase being an insoluble residue; separating said solution from said insoluble residue; and isolating the end product from said solution.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
120 words
A method of preparing a coagulant from alunite for purification of water from mechanical admixtures comprising the steps of roasting alunite at a temperature of 520°-620° C.; leaching the roasted alunite at a temperature of 80°-100° C. with a 20-35 percent solution of sulphuric acid in an amount of 70-90 percent of the stoichiometrically required amount; adding roasted alunite to the leached alunite in an amount of 10-15 percent of the weight of the starting alunite to form a pulp consisting of solid and liquid phases, the liquid phase being an aqueous solution of the end product and the solid phase being an insoluble residue; separating said solution from said insoluble residue; and isolating the end product from said solution.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
28 words
The method of claim 1, in which the end product is isolated from the solution by drying it with hot gas having an initial temperature of 500°-600° C.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
27 words
The method of claim 1, in which the solution is separated from the insoluble residue with addition of a flocculating agent in the quantity of 10-40 g/cu.m.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
15 words
The method of claim 3, in which a polyacrylomide is used as the flocculating agent.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
25 words
The method of claim 1, in which the end product is isolated from the solution by cooling the solution to a temperature of 30°-50° C.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
27 words
The method of claim 5, in which before cooling to a temperature of 30°-50° C, the solution is evaporated to reduce its initial volume by 10-15 percent.
