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 removal characteristics of natural organic matter in the recycling of drinking water treatment sludge: Role of solubilized organics.
TL;DR: Fluorescent characteristic analysis indicated that when recycling the sonicated DWTS without solubilized organics, the removal of humic-like substances was limited, whereas removal of protein- like substances was enhanced, lowering the enrichment potential of protein -like substances.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disinfection byproduct precursor dynamics and water treatability during an extreme flooding event in a coastal blackwater river in southeastern United States.
TL;DR: Water samples collected from Waccamaw River demonstrated that populations in coastal cities are at high risk with disinfection by-products (DBPs) under the changing climate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photocatalytic oxidation of natural organic matter in water
TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlight the application of photocatalysis to degrade NOM by means of TiO2-based heterogeneous and homogeneous photocatalysts and analytical techniques to quantify NOM.

Removal of protein wastes by cylinder-shaped NaY zeolite adsorbents decorated with heavy metal wastes.
Tai-Hong Cheng,Revathy Sankaran,Pau Loke Show,Chien Wei Ooi,Bing-Lan Liu,Wai Siong Chai,Yu-Kaung Chang +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the potential of the Cu/NaY zeolite complex as an efficient pseudo-metal chelate adsorbent that could remove metal ions and water-soluble proteins from wastewater concurrently was demonstrated.

Fe(II)-activated peroxymonosulfate coupled with nanofiltration removes natural organic matter and sulfamethoxazole in natural surface water: Performance and mechanisms
TL;DR: In this article, the removal of organic compounds and sulfate anions by Fe(II)/PMS oxidation coupled with nanofiltration (NF) was studied in the Songhua River water, and the results demonstrated that the hybrid system showed better performance than the single treatments for both pollutants.

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.

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.
