Some studies with Vikrah PAC AC 100/S as a coagulant

Abstract

This paper describes the performance evaluation studies of Vikram PAC AC 100/S as a coagulant. It was observed that Vikram PAC AC 100/S acts as a good coagulant over a wide range of turbidity and produces larger and more readily settleable floes than alum. The residual aluminium is less in Vikram PAC AC 100/S treated water than that in alum treated water. The sludge volume generated by Vikram PAC AC 100/S is less than that generated by alum for attaining the same guality of settled water from a turbid raw water.
