Performance of Banana Peelings Extract as A Natural Coagulant in the Treatment of Surface Water Case Study: River Rwizi, Mbarara. by Asingya, Derrick

“…However, many researchers have come up with different plant-based coagulants to replace Aluminum sulphate thus, the main objective of this research was to the investigate performance of banana peelings extract as a natural coagulant in the treatment of surface water by comparing the coagulation action of the raw and ripe banana peelings extracts against Aluminium sulphate, a chemical coagulant as the control experiment. …”
