| ABSTRACT The Edible-Oil industries in Egypt consume about 6000 m3/h of water. Effluents from these industries accompany more than 6000 tons per year of edible oils , which are actually lost due , either to lack of efficient treatments , or due to the in-efficiency of these treatments. Many methods had been used for treatment of effluents , the physical methods of which proved to be the best . The use of flotation as a technique for treatment of such effluents is restricted by some special requirements for such a technique . Many researches, thus , were done to overcome such restrictions , yet they had not arrived to solution which could be considered as to be vital as a solution. This research is , thus, a trial of new mode, with a clear objective to discover a possibility of recycling the oil contaminated with the aqueous effluents from the edible-oil industries, on a laboratory scale , as a step on a train of trials which will follow . Results revealed the success of the first step to reach nearly complete re-gain of the lost oil with those effluents, by the use a new mode of distributors which was not common in use for such techniques and by some modifications of the treatment processings steps by the flotation technique . | ||
