Coagulation is critical process in drinking water treatment involving colloid charge neutralization followed by aggregation into flocs that are amenable to solid liquid separation with subsequent processes such as filtration. Most of water treatment plants use alum A1₂ (SO₄)₃ 14 - H₂ O, as a coagulant due to its effectiveness in treating awide range of water type and relatively low cost. Alum sludge produced from water treatment plants contains aluminum hydroxide mixed with suspended solids in raw water
