Comparative assessment of moringa oleifera seed extract and aluminum sulfate solution efficiency as coagulants for storm water treatment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Chemical coagulants used in water treatment are detrimental to human health. This research assessed the viability of Moringa oleifera (MO) seed extract compared with Aluminium Sulphate (Alum) as for treating stormwater. Five hundred mL each eight storm samples were analyzed through Jar test method and zone settling rate experiment. Temperature, pH, conductivity, turbidity, total suspended solids before after adding coagulants. Results obtained on percentage reduction interface height show lesser percentages (0.47, 0.76, 1.14, 0.19%) when varying concentrations (50, 60, 70, 80 mg/L) MO employed superior (87.07, 90.09, 95.27 94.57%.) same Alum solution added. Nonetheless, heights significantly (p<0.05) different from other. J. Bangladesh Acad. Sci. 47(1); 119-125: June 2023

Study of Moringa oleifera (Drumstick) seed as natural Absorbent and Antimicrobial agent for River water treatment
The high cost of treated water makes most people in the rural communities to resort to readily available water sources which are normally of low quality exposing them to waterborne diseases. The present study was carried out to confirm the effectiveness of seed powder extracted from mature-dried Moringa oleifera seeds which are commonly available in most rural communities. The main objective of...
متن کاملProcess Optimization for Fluoride Removal from Water by Moringa Oleifera Seed Extract
The natural coagulant Moringa oleifera (MO) is considered to be an efficient coagulant with some advantages over chemical coagulants. Fluoride removal, using MO seed extract was investigated. The influence of MO dosage, initial F concentration, and pH were determined and modeled using the Box-Behnken design response surface methodology. With a constant initial F concentration, it was found that...

Moringa oleifera Lam. is a tropical plant, used for centuries as food and traditional medicine. The aim of this study was to develop, validate and biochemically characterize an isothiocyanate-enriched moringa seed extract (MSE), and to compare the anti-inflammatory effects of MSE-containing moringa isothiocyanate-1 (MIC-1) with a curcuminoid-enriched turmeric extract (CTE), and a material furth...
متن کاملApplication of Moringa Oleifer Seed Extract and Polyaluminum Chloride in Water Treatment
The use of synthetic coagulants is not regarded as suitable due to health and economic considerations. Studies were carried out in laboratory scale on deionised water containing synthetic turbidity of kaolinite. Experiments were carried out in four turbidity ranges: 10, 50, 500, 1000 (NTU) and the pH range 5-8. The efficiency of moringa oleifera seed extract and polyaluminum chloride was examin...
متن کاملBioremediation of Turbid Surface Water Using Seed Extract from the Moringa oleifera Lam. (Drumstick) Tree.
An indigenous water treatment method uses Moringa oleifera seeds in the form of a crude water-soluble extract in suspension, resulting in an effective natural clarification agent for highly turbid and untreated pathogenic surface water. Efficient reduction (80.0% to 99.5%) of high turbidity produces an aesthetically clear supernatant, concurrently accompanied by 90.00% to 99.99% (1 to 4 log) ba...
