Abstract
Two methods of treating pulp and paper wastewater, i.e. electrocoagulation and chemical coagulation, were investigated based on an analysis of selected wastewater parameters, such as COD, turbidity and colour, and a determination of the fractal dimension of the sludge. Both methods appeared efficient. Fractal dimension proved to be an important parameter characterising the aggregation process and the structure of flocs.
