Application of Natural Polymer Extracted ...

In this work, we conducted a study on the extraction of natural polymer and use of natural polymer such as coagulating agent in the process of coagulation/flocculation for water treatment, which was carried out to study the removal of turbidity parameter. The natural polymer was extracted from the plant Moringa oleifera, and the extraction occurred in saline, and saline solutions were employed, so did the monovalent (KCl and NaCl) and divalent (BaCl2, CaCl2 and MgCl2). Therefore, given that the laws are becoming increasingly rigid and the requirements of the standard improvement on health is increasingly drawn attention worldwide, water treatment coagulant using natural provides greater efficiency to water treatments. Thus the use of natural polymer such as coagulating agent extracted from Moringa oleifera amid saline BaCl2 was more efficient in the removal of turbidity parameter reaching removal percentage of 99%, to water with starting turbidity of 50 and 150 y uT respectively .
