Abstract
Laboratory experiments were conducted in order to investigate the poss ibilities of some water-soluble polymers to be used as flocculants for treatment of oil containing water. The effect of magnetic activation of the polymers on flocculation process was studied. It was found that preliminary magnetic activation of the polymers decreases the time fo r precipitation or accelerates the process of flocculation which leads to increasing of the rate of purification of sewer water and protects the environment.
