Abstract

A Study of Preparation and Analysis of a Synthetic Polymer Coagulant

Highlights

  • Both surface and ground water frequently contains physical, biological, and chemical constituents that can affect the health of those who drink it, lessen its synthetic appeal, and inconvenience the users

  • Comparing the two electrolytes it is obvious that H2SO4 gave better result in turbidity removal

  • The main disadvantage of using Hydrogen Chloride (HCl) is that the flocs formed in water did not settle well

Summary

Introduction

Both surface and ground water frequently contains physical, biological, and chemical constituents that can affect the health of those who drink it, lessen its synthetic appeal, and inconvenience the users. It is the duty of the water treatment plant to reduce these constituents to the minimum allowable for consumption, in order to do this a treatment process has to be undertaken. The treatment of surface water, entails passing the raw water through a series of treatment units which are usually the low lift pump, aeration unit, filtration unit and disinfection unit. The list of synthetic polymers which have been successfully applied to treatment of water according to [1] includes high molecular weight polyamines, polyalkaneimines and polyacrylonitriles
