  • What is water treatment & coagulation flocculation?
  • Provided by the Springer Nature SharedIt content-sharing initiative Policies and ethics Water treatment is a necessity for social and industrial development. Coagulation-flocculation is a fundamental process for the reduction of colloidal particles present in the water to be treated.
  • How efficient is coagulation & flocculation?
  • The present study showed that the average efficiency of the coagulation and flocculation process in removing physical and chemical parameters including turbidity (NTU), COD, TSS, TDS, and fat (mg/L) was 56.88%, 46.66%, 38%, 23.19%, and 91.43% respectively. (Table 5 ).
  • Can coagulation and flocculation reduce color in textile factory wastewater?
  • The results of the study by Dafnopatidou, et al. showed that the use of coagulation and flocculation process along with aeration in textile factory wastewater treatment can reduce the amount of color by more than 97% and the possibility of reusing decolorized water is provided 11.
  • How to improve raw water flocculation characteristics?
  • In future research, a mathematical model and a stability model for enhanced coagulation should be established, flocculants should be developed, appropriate coagulation nodules should be selected, and different water qualities, preoxidation or ultrasonic methods can be considered to improve raw water flocculation characteristics.
