high levels of turbidity and suspended solids are the major disadvantages of aerated lagoons. aerated lagoon effluent filtration was investigated by horizontal roughing filter (hrf). removal efficiencies were determined by examining total phosphorus (tp) and total kjeldahl nitrogen (tkn) from hrf influent and effluent, simultaneously. hrf pilot system located on effluent pump station of qom was...

Coagulation-flocculation followed by sedimentation and filtration is the most commonly used water treatment process , in which turbidity or particles removal is strongly dependent on proper coagulant dosage, effect of pH ,effect of time, jar test and settling column tests were perform. In the method the seeds were treated with different solvents of NaCl and NaOH to extract the active coagulant ...

Plantago ovata is a medicinal plant of plantain, Plantaginaceae, family used to treat intestinal disorders and stomach diseases. P. ovata grain has relieving effects and healing inflammation and irritation of the mucous layer of stomach and duodenal ulcer. Beside the medicinal benefits, this plant is useful for water turbidity removal. Coagulation and flocculation are important processes in wat...

enhanced coagulation (ec) is defined as the addition of excess coagulation to improve the removal of disinfection by-product (dbps) precursors through the use of conventional water treatment processes. in this research, most of coagulants of ferric chloride (fecl3), poly aluminum chloride(pacl) in removal of most parameters of total organic carbon (toc), dissolved organic carbon (doc), organic ...

Natural coagulants have received much attention for turbidity removal, thanks to their environmental friendliness. The present study investigates potential application of rice starch for removal of turbidity from aqueous solutions. It considers the effects of four main factors, namely settling time (40-140 min), pH (2-8), slow stirring speed (20-60 rpm), and rice starch dosage (0-200 mg/L), eac...

Background & objectives: Nitrate contamination of drinking water is a common problem in many parts of the world that poses a serious threat to public health and environment. In this research, the performance of a new rotary electrocoagulation reactor model for removal of nitrate in presence or absence of turbidity has been investigated. Methods: In this study, aluminum and iron electrodes were...
