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:

Removal of Cu2+ and Cd2+, and humic acid and phenol by electrocoagulation using iron electrodes
TL;DR: In this article, the plotting current intensity I (A) vs. applied voltage E (V) curves of electrocoagulation (EC) of some organic (humic acid (HA) and phenol) and inorganic (copper sulphate and cadmium chloride) compounds which are often found in water/wastewaters was discussed.

Review of Utilization Plant-Based Coagulants as Alternatives to Textile Wastewater Treatment
Thábata Karoliny Formicoli de Souza Freitas,Cibele Andrade de Almeida,Daniele Domingos Manholer,Henrique Cesar Lopes Geraldino,Maísa Tatiane Ferreira de Souza,Juliana Carla Garcia +5 more
TL;DR: The use of plant-based natural coagulants as a low-cost alternative to Chemical Coagulant for textile wastewater treatment has been discussed in this paper, highlighting the advantages of biodegradability, safe for human health, environmental friendly, generally toxic free and produce no secondary pollution.

Integrated process for olive oil mill wastewater treatment and its revalorization through the generation of high added value algal biomass
Ana Malvis,Gassan Hodaifa,Gassan Hodaifa,Mansour Halioui,Mahdi Seyedsalehi,Sebastián Sánchez +5 more
TL;DR: An integral process based on physico-chemical (flocculation, photolysis and microfiltration) and microalgal growth stages was proposed for its treatment and the final treated water is suitable for its use in irrigation, discharge to receiving waters or for being reused in the same process.

Novel carbon-nanoparticle polysulfone hollow fiber mixed matrix ultrafiltration membrane: Adsorptive removal of benzene, phenol and toluene from aqueous solution
Raka Mukherjee,Sirshendu De +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a novel mixed matrix (MMM) hollow fiber membranes were prepared and characterized with varying concentration of super adsorbent carbon nanoparticle and polysulfone, and the performance of the membranes was tested in terms of removal of benzene, toluene and phenol from aqueous solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mercury/silver resistance genes and their association with antibiotic resistance genes and microbial community in a municipal wastewater treatment plant.
TL;DR: Based on network analysis, Hg/Ag resistance genes might share the same microbial hosts with tetQ and tetW, implying the potential importance of HG/Ag in ARGs evolution and spread.

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.

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.
