Journal ArticleDOI
Recent Developments in Photocatalytic Water Treatment Technology: A Review
TL;DR: For the first time, a multi-variables optimization approach is described to determine the optimum operation parameters so as to enhance process performance and photooxidation efficiency in the photocatalytic water treatment process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetic study and equilibrium isotherm analysis of Congo Red adsorption by clay materials
TL;DR: In this article, the adsorption capability of clay minerals of bentonite, kaolin, and zeolite to remove Congo red from aqueous solution was evaluated using pseudo-first order and second order kinetic equations, and Freundlich and Langmuir models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption of congo red by three Australian kaolins
TL;DR: In this article, the potential use of kaolin as alternative adsorbents for removal of congo red from wastewater was investigated, and the effect of adsorbent dosage, dye concentration, pH and temperature were experimentally studied to evaluate the adsorption capacity, kinetics and equilibrium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of natural organic matter removal by polyaluminum chloride: Effect of coagulant particle size and hydrolysis kinetics
TL;DR: The mechanism of natural organic matter (NOM) removal by AlCl(3) and polyaluminum chloride (PACl) was investigated through bench-scale tests and in-situ-formed Al(b) can remove NOM and particle more efficiently via the mechanism of further hydrolysis and transfer into Al(c) during coagulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of conventional water treatment processes on cells of the cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa
TL;DR: The chemical treatment and mechanical action did not damage the cultured M. aeruginosa cells and did not result in additional release of cell metabolites above background concentrations, and no additional microcystin was found in the finished water.
