Journal ArticleDOI
Natural organic matter removal by coagulation during drinking water treatment: A review
TL;DR: Most of the NOM can be removed by coagulation, although, the hydrophobic fraction and high molar mass compounds of NOM are removed more efficiently than hydrophilic fraction and the low molarmass compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of natural organic matter in drinking water treatment by coagulation: A comprehensive review
TL;DR: With the increased fluctuation of NOM in water (concentration and composition), the efficiency of conventional coagulation was substantially reduced, hence the need to develop enhanced coagulated processes by optimizing the operating conditions, developing more efficient inorganic or organic coagulants, as well as coupling coagulations with other water treatment technologies.
Book ChapterDOI
Electrocoagulation in the treatment of industrial waters and wastewaters
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the main parameters (current density, initial pH, electric charge per volume, temperature and electrolysis cell construction) on the removal of malodorous sulfides and toxic compounds from the wastewaters and debarking effluents were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural organic matter (NOM) removal by electrochemical methods — A review
TL;DR: In this paper, Boron-doped diamond (BDD) anodes have been used to remove some toxic pollutants from wastewater and could be used as a pretreatment in combination with some other purification technology.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the removal of natural organic matter (NOM) from surface water by electrocoagulation (EC) was studied using response surface method (RSM). Factors used in the empirical model were electric charge per liter, initial pH and temperature.
