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:

Optimization and genetic programming modeling of humic acid adsorption onto prepared activated carbon and modified by multi-wall carbon nanotubes
Zahra Noorimotlagh,Maryam Ravanbakhsh,M. Valizadeh,Behrouz Bayati,George Z. Kyzas,Mehdi Ahmadi,Nadereh Rahbar,Neemat Jaafarzadeh +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the results showed that the introduced equation can successfully predict the Humic acid (HA) removal in water contaminated with contaminated (with HA) water, and the results indicated that the HA adsorption was spontaneous, endothermic and physical in nature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monitoring of organophosphorus pesticides and remediation technologies of the frequently detected compound (chlorpyrifos) in drinking water
TL;DR: In this article, a study was carried out to monitor the presence of organophosphorus pesticides in drinking water plants (Kafr-El-Shiekh, Ebshan, Elhamoul, Mehalt Aboali, Fowa, Balteem and Metobess) in Kafr El Shiekh Governorate, Egypt.

Sediment accretion and carbon storage in constructed wetlands receiving water treated with metal-based coagulants
Elizabeth B. Stumpner,Tamara E.C. Kraus,Yan L. Liang,Sandra M. Bachand,William R. Horwath,Philip A.M. Bachand +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the feasibility of using constructed wetlands receiving drainage water treated with metal-based coagulants to accrete mineral material along with wetland biomass, while also sequestering carbon in wetland sediment was examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
ε-polylysine biopolymer for coagulation of clay suspensions
TL;DR: In this paper, e-polylysine, a cationic biopolymer fermented by Streptomyces, was used for removing chemical contaminants in groundwater, and two types of sedimentation were observed in the experiments: accumulation sedimentation and flocculation sedimentation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of recycling alum sludge on coagulation of low-turbidity source waters
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the recycling performance of alum sludge (AS), formed during sedimentation process in drinking water treatment, to enhance coagulation of low-turbidity source water.

Book
Organic geochemistry of natural waters
TL;DR: The first part of the book as mentioned in this paper is a general overview of the amount and general nature of dissolved organic carbon in natural waters, and the second part is a summary of the data that has accumulated from many disciplines over the last decade.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
