coagulant is a chemical agent used in water and wastewater treatment to remove suspended particles and impurities. It works by neutralizing the electrical charges on fine particles, which are usually negatively charged and repel each other. Once these charges are neutralized, the particles can come together to form small clumps called flocs. These flocs then grow larger and can be removed by sedimentation, flotation, or filtration. Common coagulants include aluminum salts, iron salts, and organic cationic polymers. Coagulants are widely used in drinking water treatment, industrial effluent treatment, and sludge conditioning processes.
