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:

Antibacterial activity of metal-containing clinoptilolite in natural seawater
TL;DR: In this article, the antibacterial activity of a natural zeolite, clinoptilolite (Z), enriched with about 0.4-0.5 mmol of Ag (Ag-Z), Cu (Cu-Z) or Zn (Zn−Z) was tested toward two strains of Gram-negative bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
The removal of pollutants and natural organic compounds from acid mine drainage using a combination of bentonite clay and MgSO4
TL;DR: In this article, 200 mL of synthetic acid mine drainage (AMD) sample was poured into five 500 mL glass beakers and treated in a jar test and a shaker in sets of experiments, respectively.
Historical land use in Scandinavia and its influence on carbon storage in soil and peat in the boreal landscape
TL;DR: The history of land utilization in Scandinavia is characterized by two major periods of open landscape as mentioned in this paper : the first one temporal ranged from cal. AD 0-500 and the second one ranged from Cal. AD 1200- 1200.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organic polyelectrolytes in water treatment.
Brian Bolto,John Gregory +1 more
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.
