Biocoagulant from bacteria: a review
Coagulants are used to remove turbidity from raw water for potable usages. Chemical coagulants are widely used in the water treatment and other industries due to less cost and rapid production benefits. However, the negative effects of these chemical coagulants should not be neglected to gain the ec...
