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.

Effect of Dissolved Organic Matter on Agglomeration and Removal of CuO Nanoparticles by Coagulation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the removal of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) from waters by the coagulation process and showed that polyaluminum chloride (PACl) is an effective coagulant in removing these nanoparticles.
Book ChapterDOI

Chapter 9 – Integrated Methods

TL;DR: This chapter discusses NOM removal by integrating coagulation with other treatment processes and hybrid processes combining membrane techniques with other unit processes (coagulation, adsorption, oxidation, and membrane bioreactors).

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.

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.
