Waste Water Treatment by Using Garlic Extract as a Natural Coagulant
Abstract: Coagulation is the process of removal of very fine particles by forming bigger flocs in the water. But this process is not much efficient in waste water treatment as in the treatment of drinking water. This is because of adding chemical coagulant for the treatment of waste water. Use of chemicals in treatment of dyeing waste water causes formation of non-biodegradable sludge. To avoid this we made an attempt in …

ASSESSING THE EFFICACY OF BIO-COAGULANTS IN WATER TREATMENT.
Abstract: The study was designed to investigate the efficacy of Bio-Coagulants in water treatment settling tanks using alum (the commercially available coagulant) as a control for comparison. One of the most important steps in the treatment of water is coagulation, which is utilized to react with organic materials in raw water and destabilize suspended particles. Coagulants, like alum, are frequently used because they lessen the repulsive force between particulate matter, promoting …

Experimental Analysis of Physical Parameters in Treated Water
Abstract: During the first phase, the surface water treatment plant at Saidabad treats 225 million liters of water per day. In the treated water, turbidity, color, total coliform, fecal coliform, and hardness are reduced; on the other hand, conductivity and total dissolved solids increase. In the wet season, turbidity is high due to relatively coarse particle dispersions in river water. All other parameters, such as, color, total and fecal coliform, hardness, …

A Review on Nano Filtration System
Abstract: In the later half of the 1980s, nanofiltration (NF) became a significant development in the purification of water. When NF was first introduced, it was marketed as a less energy-intensive substitute for traditional techniques like reverse osmosis (RO). However, as its special qualities and uses became clear, NF was acknowledged as a separate technology in 1988. Comprehending the differences between ultrafiltration (UF), RO, and NF is essential to appreciating its …
