EFFICIENCY OF ALUM AND LIME-ALUM TREATMENTS FOR REMOVING TOXIC AND NONTOXIC PHYTOPLANKTON FROM THE NILE RIVER WATER: LABORATORY STUDY

Abstract
No phytoplankton should be present in treated drinking water because of their production for bad smell and toxins that may pose hazards to animals and human upon consuming this water. This study describes the efficiency of alum and lime-alum treatments for removing phytoplankton from the Nile river water used as a source of drinking water in Egypt. The results showed that alum could not precipitat...
