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:

The heterogeneous coagulation and flocculation of brewery wastewater using carbon nanotubes
TL;DR: Investigation of whether carbon nanotubes can be used as heterogeneous coagulants and/or flocculants in the pretreatment of brewery wastewater found ferric chloride to be a more effective coagULant than both the pristine and functionalised CNTs.

Acrylate-based Polymerizable Sol–Gel Synthesis of Magnetically Recoverable TiO2 Supported Fe3O4 for Cr(VI) Photoreduction in Aerobic Atmosphere
TL;DR: In this paper, a polymerizable sol-gel approach was used to demonstrate the photoreduction of Cr(VI) in aqueous medium, and a magnetically recoverable support for Fe3O4 was chosen as the magnetically recoveryable support, onto which, 10, 20, 30, 30 and 50% of TiO2 have been dispersed following the polyamide solgel approach.

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.
