Abstract

The composite flocculants made of polyaluminium chloride and polydimethyldiallyammonium chloride (PAC-JY01) were used to treat the humic acid-kaolin simulation of water simples by enhanced coagulation. The effluent from coagulation continued to be treated by ultrafiltration. The objective of this research is to identify the mechanism of coagulation affecting UF due to different treated water quality and operational status of UF. The research shows that, in the coagulation-ultrafiltration (UF) hybrid process, the optimum coagulant dosage and pH value are 3 mg/L and pH = 6, respectively. At the optimum condition, the removal efficiency of UV254 and turbidity are 79.30%, 99.70%, respectively. In test conditions, the larger flocs are easy to deposit on the membrane surface causing membrane fouling.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
