Treatment Of Secondary Oxidation Pond Effluent Using Hollow Fibre Crossflow Microfiltration And Moringa Oleifera Seeds Extract As Coagulant

A secondary oxidation pond effluent was treated using hollow fibre crossflow micro filtration and coagulation process. Preliminary experiments were carried out to find optimum dosage of Moringa oleifera and alum as coagulants. Optimum dosage of Moringa oleifera in treating low turbid (30-70 NTU)...

Preliminary experiments were carried out to find optimum dosage of Moringa oleifera and alum as coagulants. Optimum dosage of Moringa oleifera in treating low turbid (30-70 NTU) and high turbid (70-100 NTU) secondary oxidation pond effluent was 100 mg/L respectively. About 50% turbidity removal was achieved when using 100 mg/L Moringa oleifera.

Both Moringa oleifera and alum were found to be more efficient in treating high turbid samples. However, alum was more effective in removing turbidity in secondary oxidation pond effluent than Moringa oleifera.
