A Novel Natural Active Coagulant Agent Extracted from the Sugarcane Bagasse for Wastewater Treatment

The performance of extracted coagulant from the sugarcane bagasse was tested using synthetic wastewater for turbidity removal. Sugarcane selected because it is available in abundance as a waste. This study carried out to analyze effect extraction process optimizing active agent natural optimum Bagasse characterized terms physical, chemical and morphological properties. results showed has very high polysaccharide content which can act an together with hemicellulose lignin. degradation lignin run based on two different solvents (NaOH H2SO4) varying concentrations 2% 10% at temperatures varied 60 °C 180 various times (0.5 h 3 h). 697.5 mg/mL by NaOH 120 2 extraction. coagulation removal suspended solids up 95.9% under conditions. concentration polysaccharides plays vital role where removes most lower dosage. potential be alternative coagulating due its efficiency, eco-friendly properties treatment wastewater.
