Water scarcity pressures and stricter discharge regulations are driving industrial facilities and municipal operators to implement comprehensive water reuse strategies. However, successful water reuse projects require methodical scoping that matches treatment technologies to specific water quality parameters and operational constraints. This systematic approach prevents costly oversizing, ensures ...
Studies show freshwater makes up only 3% of all water on Earth. With the numerous manufacturing plants discharging industrial effluent in lakes and rivers, the amount of freshwater available to us is bound to reduce further. Industrial effluent contains toxic material which, if disposed of in bodies of water, leads to contamination. Companies have set up water treatment systems to treat ...
The plant uses traditional physico-chemical processes, which means that in order to produce clean water for drinking, reagents such as ferric chloride, an inorganic iron-based coagulant, must be injected. It is at this stage that the deployment of the correct dosing pumps is vital. ...
This suggests that, unlike aluminum-based coagulants, increasing the basicity of iron-based coagulants does not improve virus removal efficiency. Furthermore, the relative abundance of monomeric iron(III) species in the PFCs decreased, whereas that of precipitated iron(III) ...
Each coagulant is pH dependent and shows varied results with change in effluent characteristics. The hydrolysis products of aluminium-based coagulants, iron-based coagulants and copper sulphate have positive charges. These positive charges promote formation of flocs through charged neutralisation ...
Pre-concentration of municipal wastewater by chemically enhanced primary treatment (CEPT) was studied under controlled laboratory conditions. Both iron and aluminium-based coagulants were examined at gradually increasing concentrations (0.23, 0.35, 0.70 and 1.05 mmol/L). The CEPT sludge generated from different coagulation ...
