| Abstract | The treatment of waste water using chemical coagulants are considered to be very expensive and over dosage causes harmful effects. And for limiting the chemical used in treatment of waste water, natural waste coagulants can be the best substitute. The project is focused to evaluate the efficiency of natural coagulants like orange peel, papaya seed and neem leaf powder for the evaluation of purity in collected waste water sample. Three characteristics of water sample will be tested which includes Turbidity, PH, and TSS. Jar test apparatus will be used for determining the optimum dosage of natural coagulants. Since natural coagulants are environmental friendly and low cost it can be widely used in future. |
