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.

Probing fouling mechanism of anion exchange membranes used in electrodialysis self-reversible treatment by humic acid and calcium ions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the AEM fouling by Ca2+ and humic acid (HA) using synthetic groundwater using vibrational spectroscopy and found that both inter-and intramolecular interactions, including hydrophobic cationπ interactions among HA-Ca2+ complexes, were active in membrane fouling.

Coagulation-Flocculation Technology in Water and Wastewater Treatment

TL;DR: In this paper, the principle of coagulation and flocculation process is discussed, which includes the charge neutralization and various binding mechanisms e.g. interparticle bridging, sweeping coagulations, and absorption.

Utjecaj oksidacije na učinkovitost uklanjanja prekursora trihalometana iz vode koagulacijom i flokulacijom

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of oxidation on the impact of removing the trihalomethane precursor from the water by coagulation and flocculation was investigated, and it was concluded that the most efficient coagulant is Fe2(SO4)3, with potassium permanganate preoxidation and the addition of activated charcoal powder.

Occurrence of a New Generation of Disinfection Byproducts

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

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Organic polyelectrolytes in water treatment.

TL;DR: There is a focus on polymers for primary coagulation, their use as coagulant aids, in the recycling of filter backwash waters, and in sludge thickening.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fundamentals, present and future perspectives of electrocoagulation.

TL;DR: This paper presents an in-depth discussion and consideration of the factors that need to be addressed for optimum performance of this technology.
