Natural organic matter removal by coagulation during drinking water treatment: A review
TLDR
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.About:

Occurrence of a New Generation of Disinfection Byproducts
Stuart W. Krasner,Howard S. Weinberg,Susan D. Richardson,Salvador J. Pastor,Russell Chinn,Michael J. Sclimenti,Gretchen D. Onstad,Alfred D. Thruston +7 more
TL;DR: A survey of disinfection byproduct (DBP) occurrence in the United States was conducted at 12 drinking water treatment plants to obtain quantitative occurrence information for new DBPs (beyond those currently regulated and/or studied) for prioritizing future health effects studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coagulation by hydrolysing metal salts
Jinming Duan,John Gregory +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed understanding of the sweep flocculation mechanism is provided, especially with regard to the role of charge neutralization and hydroxide precipitation. But the results can be reasonably well explained in terms of established ideas, and there are also some uncertainties regarding the action of pre-hydrolysed coagulants.
