The Potential Use of Moringa peregrina Seeds and Seed Extract as a Bio-Coagulant for Water Purification

Moringa is a genus with many applications; some of these applications can be linked to their use in traditional medicine and as source nutrients, traditionally, species have been used for water purification. Many studies conducted assess the different One that extensively studied M. Oleifera because its wide geographical distribution. There are limited on peregrina due distribution, it native Arabian Peninsula other countries Middle East. The aim this study potential coagulation. This was using synthetic samples well real, untreated wastewater determine seeds results revealed seed extract had better turbidity removal at 60 °C compared room temperature, increasing ionic strength extracting solution could also improve efficiency terms removal. Furthermore, de-oiled showed comparable raw seeds. Application real percentage 38%, 81%, 74% SCOD, turbidity, color, respectively. dose 200 mg/L equivalent capable removing 97.4%, 66.5%, 51.8%, 50.3%, 45.8% Mo, Cu, Cd, Cr, Co,
