Abstract :
The paper aims to determine the optimal coagulant for raw water in Ganjiang River in winter. Using FeCl3, Al2(SO4)3, PAC, PFS as coagulants, we conducted six-jar test, to find out their respective effect on turbidity and organic matters removal. With technical analysis, we finally come to the conclusion that Al2(SO4)3 is the best coagulant.
