Removal of model waste-water bacteria by magnetite in water and waste-water treatment processes
DownloadFall 2012
Conventional disinfection processes used for water and waste-water treatment such as chlorination, and ozonation produce disinfection by products which are carcinogenic. The use of magnetite as an alternative method of removing pathogenic microorganisms from the water streams was proposed as it...
