Efficient Turbidity Removal Using a New Gel Filtration Process
Talhami, Mohammed; Al-Khatib, Wardan; Dahdal, Obadah; Hassan, Mohammad K.; AlHawari, Alaa H. ( Qatar University Press , 2023 , Conference Paper)The removal of turbidity is a prime objective in the treatment of seawater, especially in the production of potable water. The water turbidity exists because of the colloidal particles or large-weight molecules that remain ... -
