background & aims of the study: drinking polluted water can transmit diseases, so potable water treatment is one of the most challenging and complex systems in countries. continuous monitoring for evaluation process in water treatment plant is important. this study aims to investigate performance evaluation of qom water treatment plant to remove turbidity and coliform in 2005 - 2014. materials ...

This experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of treatment of composting plant leachate by a coagulation-flocculation process. The effects of different dosages of coagulant and different pH values on the coagulation processes were compared. Ferric chloride and aluminium sulphate (alum) were tested as conventional coagulants. The experimental results show that a 18% removal of ...

This work investigated the formation of carbonaceous and nitrogenous disinfection by-products (C-DBPs, N-DBPs) upon chlorination of water samples collected from a surface water and a ground water treatment plant (SWTP and GWTP) where the conventional treatment processes, i.e., coagulation, sedimentation, and filtration were employed. Twenty DBPs, including four trihalomethanes, nine haloacetic ...

efore the 1970s, research into the nature of natural organic matter (NOM) in drinking water and into methods for its removal was driven primarily by the desire to remove color from public water supplies. Since then, several other problems associated with NOM have been identified, including its demand for coagulants and disinfectants, its potential to transport metals and hydrophobic organic che...

Laboratory and full-scale experiments were conducted for enhancing the coagulation of stabilised surface waters with high organic content by permanganate preoxidation. It was indicated that permanganate preoxidation enhanced both the processes of coagulation and filtration of selected surface waters, River Songhua water, Qitaihe Reservoir water and Ba Reservoir water. Permanganate preoxidation ...
