Abstract
The effects of ultrasonic vibration on the flotational separation of s yrup were tested with and without polyacrylamide (PAM), The results sh ow that without PAM ultrasonic cavitation has a negative effect on flo tational separation. However, in the presence of PAM, coagulation is s timulated. Thus, the process can markedly improve the efficiency of fl otational clarification of syrup, and reduce the amount of flocculant required.
