Chitosan for Direct Bioflocculation Processes

Coagulation-flocculation is a major process allowing to remove suspended particles from municipal and industrial wastewater. This process commonly involves metal salts as coagulants and synthetic organic polymers as flocculants. Although those chemicals are cheap, efficient, available and easy to us...
