Abstract

This paper considers the removal of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from a typical UK upland reservoir water using three different coagulants; aluminium sulphate/alum (Al2(SO4)3(aq)), polyaluminium chloride/PAX-18 (Aln(OH)mCl3n-m(aq)) and ferric sulphate/PIX-322 (Fe2(SO4)3(aq)). A comparison of DOC q...
