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:

Recent Advancement of Coagulation–Flocculation and Its Application in Wastewater Treatment
TL;DR: In this article, a critical review on recent studies of coagulation-flocculation treatment processes of various industrial wastewaters is presented, where the limitations and challenges for the coagulated-fluctuation process such as toxicity and health hazard posed by inorganic coagulants, production of large amount of toxic sludge, ineffectiveness in removing heavy metals and emerging contaminants, increase in effluent color, inefficient pollutant removal using natural coagULants, and complexity of scaling up procedure are presented.

A review on chitosan-based flocculants and their applications in water treatment
TL;DR: The influence of structural elements of the chitosan-based flocculants on their flocculation properties are emphasized in this review by examining different flocculations mechanisms and their applications in the treatment of various wastewaters containing different pollutants.

Electrocoagulation and advanced electrocoagulation processes: A general review about the fundamentals, emerging applications and its association with other technologies
Sergi Garcia-Segura,Maria Maesia S.G. Eiband,Jailson Vieira de Melo,Carlos A. Martínez-Huitle,Carlos A. Martínez-Huitle +4 more
TL;DR: The electrocoagulation (EC) process is an electrochemical means of introducing coagulants and removing suspended solids, colloidal material, and metals, as well as other dissolved solids from water and wastewaters as discussed by the authors.

Removal of natural organic matter in drinking water treatment by coagulation: A comprehensive review
TL;DR: With the increased fluctuation of NOM in water (concentration and composition), the efficiency of conventional coagulation was substantially reduced, hence the need to develop enhanced coagulated processes by optimizing the operating conditions, developing more efficient inorganic or organic coagulants, as well as coupling coagulations with other water treatment technologies.

Coagulation-ultrafiltration system for river water treatment.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used three different coagulants, viz. FeCl3, Fe2(SO4)3, and Al2-SO4)-3, for the in-line coagulation and ultra-filtration hybrid process in Czarna Przemsza river (Silesia region, Poland).

Coagulation and ultrafiltration: Understanding of the key parameters of the hybrid process
TL;DR: In this paper, the key parameters to improve membrane performance, by describing floc behaviour during the hollow fibre ultrafiltration process, were determined by measuring floc growth in different coagulation reactors by laser granulometry.

Coagulation of humic acid: The performance of preformed and non-preformed Al species
TL;DR: In this paper, coagulants with different Al speciation characteristics were prepared to conduct coagulation of humic acid (HA), and the results showed that the results were less effective than conventional Al salt in removing Humic acid with large molecular and hydrophobic properties.
