Kinetics and performance of coagulation process using Mucuna seed shell for the treatment of paint wastewater

The use of coagulation technique in the treatment of different kinds of wastewaters has been employed using various coagulants. In this study, the focus is on the efficiency of coagulation process in the treatment of paint wastewater (PW) using Mucuna seed shell (MSS) as a natural and cost effective coagulant. The effluent was collected from a paint industry in Enugu State, Nigeria. Effects of initial pH, settling time, coagulant dosage, and...
