Influence of Mangosteen Pericarp (MP) in Coagulation Treatment and Membrane Fouling

The available conventional water treatment processes has not readily met the drinking water quality. The chemical used in treatment process will produce by-product that might affect the treated water quality. In light of this research was carried out to investigate the effectiveness of Mangosteen Pe...
