Investigation of the Potential of Monomeric and Polymeric Coagulants in the Treatment of Raw Water used at a Coal-Fired Power Station
Abstract:Abstract-Vast amounts of water are used to operate power stations, such as Grootvlei Power Station. It is essential for the industry to reduce the amount of surface water used due to the scarcity of water in South Africa. The raw water feed to the Grootvlei Power Station is obtained from the Lower Vaal. Surface water commonly have turbidity levels of 20 -200 NTU owing to suspended solids in the water comprising of biological material and undissolved minerals. This study investigates a variety of monomeric and … Show more
