There isn't a standard dosage. The best option is to perform jar test in order to find the best dosage according to the wastewater characteristics.

For karf pulp mill, many times the best wastewater treatment option is the biological thecnologies (activated sludge).

There are a lot of techniques that you can use. I recommend to you the electroflotation. you can see my paper, that it's about a wastewater from mine .
