Abstract

Coagulation/Flocculation (CF) and adsorption-based water treatment operations are important unit processes in water treatment systems. CF is used in any of the stages of the water treatment protocol while adsorption is used only at the tertiary stage of treatment. Adsorption enriches the surface of a liquid or a solid with chemical species from a fluid phase while CF agglomerates colloidal and suspended matters. In this treatise, the underlying operational mechanisms of these two water treatment unit processes are elucidated. Premised on the operational principles, the material requirements for each operation of coagulation and adsorption is also highlighted and discussed in this Chapter.
