A Novelhybrid Bio-System for Wastewater Treatment Using Algerian Agricultural Wastes

Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: The development of a new clean, easy to handle process with similar efficiency to that of the conventional process is one of the most important challenges in green chemistry investigation. In this study, a new hybrid process was investigated; coupling coagulation-flocculation with adsorption using abundant and natural bioproducts (Chitosan and Ammi visnaga). The Chitosan/Ammi visnaga (coagulation/adsorption) system was studied for its Brilliant Green dye removal capacity. This new technique seems to be a good alternative method for wastewater treatment, showing satisfactory results with high rates of elimination that range around 90 %.
