Optimisation of tapioca peel powder as natural coagulant in removing chemical oxygen demand, ammonia nitrogen, turbidity, colour, and suspended solids from leachate sample

Development of natural coagulant is trending these days, especially among the researchers and the practitioners in the water and wastewater treatment industry. In this study, a natural coagulant made from agro-waste of tapioca peel was developed, and its performance had been tested by applying it on...
