Evaluation of the effectiveness of some local plant extracts in improving the quality of unsafe water consumed in developing countries
Frédéric Anderson Konkobo, Paul Windinpsidi Savadogo, Mamounata Diao, Roger Dakuyo and Mamoudou Hama Dicko
This study highlights the possibility of using plant extracts as biocoagulants to replace aluminum sulfate in the process of raw water potabilization. For this purpose, nine plants were identified by an investigation and their effectiveness was evaluated in the laboratory by coagulation/flocculation on surface waters. Out of the nine plants id(...)
