Study of the Effect of Saline Solution on the Extraction of the Acacia Gum Active Coagulant for Textile Wastewater TreatmentBy S. Vijayakumar, C. Arunprakash, R. Gobinath, M. Nishanth, L. Gunasekar, T. Narmatha
Abstract: The use of synthetic coagulants is not regarded as suitable due to health and economic considerations. A new coagulant obtained through polymerization of acacia gum extract has been characterized in the removal of dangerous dye pollutants. The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of acacia gum as coagulant in treatment of textile wastewater. The coagulant prepared was employed for the removal of sludge at the different doses. The …
