Coagulation
7
Source: SNF FLOERGER (2003) Physical-chemical process involved in Coagulation-Flocculation Coagulation-flocculationCoagulation-flocculation: The use of chemical reagents to destabilise and increase the size of the particles; mixing; increasing of flocs size.
8
Coagulation destabilises the particles’ charges. Coagulants with charges opposite to those of the suspended solids are added to the water to neutralise the negative charges on dispersed non-settable solids such as clay and organic substances. Once the charge is neutralised, the small-suspended particles are capable of sticking together.
9
Following coagulation, flocculation, a gentle mixing stage, increases the particle size from submicroscopic microfloc to visible suspended particles. flocculation

Chlorine Disinfection (Cl 2 ): one of the most commonly used disinfectants for water disinfection. can be applied for the deactivation of most microorganisms and it is relatively cheap. Advantages: efficient oxidant and disinfectant effectively eliminates unpleasant taste and odors featured with aftereffect (Free chlorine residual of 0.2-0.5 mg/L) prevents and controls growth of algae, biological slimes and microbes decomposes organic contaminants (phenols, etc.) oxidizes iron and magnesium decomposes hydrogen sulfide, cyanides, ammonium and other nitrogen compounds. Disadvantages: strict requirements for transportation and storage ; potential risk to health in case of leakage; formation of disinfection by-products, such as trihalomethanes. Disinfection
21
Sodium hypochlorite (NaClO): Advantages: effective against most of pathogenic microorganisms relatively safe during storage and use when produced on site does not require transportation and storage of hazardous chemicals Disadvantages: looses its activity during long-term storage ineffective against cysts (Giardia, Cryptosporidium) produces disinfection by-products, such as trihalomethanes generated on-site requires immediate use Other disinfectants: Chlorine dioxide; Chloramine; Ozone; Ultraviolet Solar Disinfection(SODIS) Heating water to 65°C (149°F) in a solar cooker will pasteurize the water and kill disease causing microbes.

Benefits of Treatment Wetlands Constructed and natural treatment wetlands provide several major benefits compared to more conventional treatment alternatives: less expensive to construct than traditional secondary and tertiary wastewater treatment systems. less maintenance and are less expensive to operate than traditional treatment systems. may provide important wetland wildlife habitat, as well as human recreational opportunities such as birdwatching, hiking, and picnicking. Treatment wetlands are viewed as an asset by regulatory agencies in many regions and as a potentially effective method for replacing natural wetlands lost through agricultural practices, industrial and municipal development, and groundwater withdrawal.
