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 h...

From the rupture of Fundão dam in Mariana–MG, there are tailings still present at bottom plant that must be recovered. The flocculation followed by sedimentation operation can applied as a unit this recovering process. Instead using conventional inorganic coagulants, bio-based coagulants offer some advantages, due to their low toxicity and biodegradability. Nonetheless, use mining industry is n...

Sulphated polysaccharides with anti-thrombotic and anti-coagulant activities have been found in various marine biota. In this study, a previously characterised anti-thrombotic and anti-coagulant extract from blacklip abalone was fractionated by anion exchange chromatography (AEC), pooled (on a sulphated polysaccharide basis) and administered to Wistar rats via oral gavage (N = 8) for assessment...

This study is on the reuse of the residue generated by a Moringa oleifera oil extraction plant. The residual oil cake produced during the process of oil extraction retains the positively charged protein of the M. oleifera seed, which is the active component in the process of 15 attracting and capturing suspended particles in waters. Such coagulant–flocculant properties give rise to the eliminat...

• UF coagulant dose controller was successfully developed and field tested. • Self-adaptive in-line UF coagulant dosing reduced coagulant consumption. • Real-time tracking of fouling resistance and backwash effectiveness. • Robust UF operation during conditions of deteriorating source water quality. ⁎ Corresponding authors.
