Flocculation is an essential phenomenon in industrial wastewater treatment. Inorganic
coagulants (salts of multivalent metals) are being commonly used due to its low cost and …

Starch has received much attention as a promising natural material both in biomedical fields
and waste water treatment due to its unique biological and adsorptive properties. Recently …

Iron ore is generally transported using a traditional method that releases significant amounts
of dust into the environment. In contrast, the pipeline transportation of slurry is noticeably a …

Flocculation is a common technique that is widely used in many industrial applications to
promote solid–liquid separation processes. The addition of a polymeric flocculant allows for …

A novel polymeric flocculant based on polyacrylamide grafted carboxymethyl guar gum
(CMG-g-PAM) has been synthesised by grafting polyacrylamide chains onto CMG backbone …

The fact that water is the most important material used by mankind defines the importance of
water purification. Wastewater and industrial effluent treatment require removal of …

Novel functionalized polymeric flocculants based on polyacrylamide grafted
carboxymethylstarch (CMS-g-PAM) have been successfully synthesized via conventional …

Microalgae are small in size with negatively charged surface. They are usually stable in
suspension culture and hard to flocculate. The present work emphasizes on the synthesis of …

Here, synthesis of an efficient nanocomposite based on a polyacrylamide grafted
carboxymethyl tamarind (CMT-g-PAM) and a SiO2 nanoparticle is presented. The …

Polyacrylamide chains (PAM) were grafted onto the backbone of gum ghatti by microwave
assisted method. The grafting of the PAM chains on the polysaccharide backbone was …
