The use of conventional chemical coagulants and flocculants to treat pollutant-laden
effluents generates residues with harmful effects on the environment. This has led us to think …

Plant-based coagulants/flocculants are foreseen to be a major progress in water treatment
technology owing to their safety, biodegradability and availability, unlike synthetic chemical …

Aloe vera plant offers a sustainable solution for the removal of various pollutants from water.
Due to its chemical composition, Aloe vera has been explored as coagulant/flocculant and …

Due its high water content, sewage sludge dewatering is not just a simple operation; rather,
it is a challenging process and a costly management task. Its final handling is usually …

This study examined the treatment of surface water using a mixed natural (linseed) and
chemical (alum)-based coagulant in terms of color, turbidity, and chemical oxygen demand …

The dewatering process reduces the water quantity in sludge, allowing the decrease in its
volume, which facilitates its storage, transport, stabilization, and improves the post-treatment …

Several researchers have established the performance of natural coagulants in treating
water via coagulation and flocculation process. This study is aimed at investigating the use …

Dye invasion in wastewaters is undeniably one of the crucial environmental concerns in
addition to the supplement of toxic synthetic chemical flocculants used for color removal …

Recently, biopolymers have been used as coagulants/flocculants due to their
biodegradability, low cost, and renewability. In this study, an environmentally friendly amine …

Cactus cladodes have been emerged as one of the most popular plant-based flocculants.
They have been listed as a promising natural alternative to the noxious synthetic flocculants …
