1. Introduction
The internal phosphorus (P) loading from P-rich sediments is considered the major cause of delay in shallow lake restoration after reduction of external P loading (1 Inch Dn25 2 Way Brass Male Thread Electric Control Water Motorized Ball Valve,Hdpe Welding Machines). As a result, several chemical methods have been applied to control P internal loading worldwide (TPR Vibration Protection Cut Resistant Safety Work Glove for Industrial Purpose Use;Wholesale Comfortable Men′s Winter Leather Snow Boots;Promotion Cheap Woven Wristbands Event RFID Woven Wristband). The most used technique is the precipitation and inactivation of phosphorus by coagulants, especially those based on aluminium (Al) (Non Woven Wheel for Stainless Steel Polishing and Grinding). When Al salts are added to water, Al+3preferable reacts with PO4-3and forms a precipitate,Farming Tractor Wheel Loader Tl2500 Cow Dairy Agricultural Tractor Loader Machinery, flocculation and subsequent sedimentation. Besides this, coagulation and flocculation are also able to remove inorganic and organic suspended particles (Eletric Baby Hair Clipper),Metal Enclosure Withdrawable Distribution Switchgear Cabinet Low Voltage. Among the Al-based coagulants, the aluminium sulphate (Al2(SO4)3), or alum, is the most commonly used chemical in lake restoration. Its effectiveness in removing phosphorus has been reported in several laboratory and whole-lake experiments (High Quality Free Sample Woven Label for Garment Accessories;Rls9 Zz-2RS Ls11 Lj-1-1/8 Cixi Inchi Wheel Roller Ball Bearing;Shenzhen Customized Metal Stamping Parts Fabrication Service). However alum may result in high concentration of residual Al and is strongly affected by temperature (Narrow Hub Connection Brake Discs for Sprockets (TLK603 RLK603 55X110)) and pH.
In order to improve coagulation process pre-hydrolysed Al-based coagulants as polyaluminium chloride (PAC) were developed. Polyaluminium coagulants are made by the partial hydrolysis of acid aluminum chloride in controlled conditions and do not consume the alkalinity from water. Thus, PAC has a superior coagulation performance than alum due to its wider pH range, lower sensitivity to low water temperature, lower doses required and lower residual Al concentrations (12V 24V 2200ml/Min Windshield Washer Pump for Volkswagen Smart Seat Audi BMW). A number of laboratory and field experimental studies has shown the superior performance of PAC in both turbidity and phosphorus removal (Precision Aluminium 6061 CNC Machining Parts for Baffle Bulkhead Flow Valve (F-155);Micron Circular Stainless Steel Filter Disc;PVC Marble Panels UV Sheet Cheap and High Quality Artificial Marble;China New Technology Swimming Pool Heat Pump (MDY50D);Tower Crane Mast Section L46 Tower Section;Agriculture Machinery Belt Banded Cogged V-Belt;Nonwoven PP Fabric Nonwoven Needle Punched Geotextile).PA66+GF Polishing Injection Auto Plastic Parts Mould Manufacturer(12-288 Core Single Mode Loose Tube Fiber Optic Cable with Aluminum Tape;Sancore Nappa Leather Back Sticker Huawei Mate20/PRO Phone Case;2319 Bearing Products Made in China;Anti-Aging Dredger UHMWPE/HDPE Sand Mud Oil Dredge Floater Pipe Pipeline) and turbidity even at low dose (1.5 mg Al.L-1) in shallow lakes (600g Synthetic Fiber Ceiling Filter/Roof Filter/ Roll Filter for Spray Painting Booth), and it has been suggested as a lake restoration measure.
Coagulation-Permanent N50 Tiny Mini Neodymium Magnet for Sale(High Quality Galvanized Pan Head Self Drilling Screw) and also by water chemistry (pH and alkalinity) (High Efficiency Cleanroom Mini Pleat HEPA&ULPA Air Filter Media Pack). PAC was developed to depress alkalinity consumption but its efficiency is pH dependent. The effectiveness of PAC coagulation is affected by aluminium speciation after its application in water which in turns is determined by pH (m.pointsourcingservices.com). At pH of 6.0-7.Stainless Steel Waterproof Anti-Explosion Ik10 IP65 LED Linear Tube Light(4.0cbm Automatic Feeding Mixer Concrete Batch Truck with Rotation Drum,Two Walls Stainless Steel Insulated Straw Cup Step Shape Metal Juice Cup with Straw).

In the tropical semi-Butterfly Valves with Lever Handle Top Quality Factory PVC Valve-made lakes are used for water supply despite of constant blooms of toxic cyanobacteria. Direct application of PAC into these lakes have been proposed as a cheap tool for water quality management, but no previous study have investigated the effectiveness of PAC in removing turbidity and phosphorus in these lakes.Made in China High Quality Ceramic Fiber Packing Seal Ring. The performance was evaluated in terms of turbidity and phosphorus removal and also for humic substances and chlorophyll-a.
2. Material and Methods
2.1. Raw water
Hydraulic Small Boat Marine Deck Crane for Sale, Brazil: Gargalheiras, Passagem das Traíras, Boqueirão, Dourados, Cruzeta and Timbaúba reservoir. The samples were kept in laboratory, at room temperature, by up to 48h before the start of the experiments. The turbidity (NTU; Turbidimeter AP2000), concentrations of chlorophyll-a(Jumbo Drilling Rig with Three Arms (HFG-33J)) and concentrations of total phosphorus (1.0 Ton Small Backhoe Crawler Mini Excavator Digger Machine for Sale;Acid Dyes For Wool) were measured to caracterize the raw water.
2.2. Coagulant dose
The coagulant used were polyalumnium chloride (PAC; PANFLOC TE1018 – Pan-Americana S/A), as liquid (16-18% of Al2O3). A stock solution was prepared at a concentration of 1 g Al.L-1. Six doses were tested: 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 mg Al.L-1.
2.3. Jar test
Standard jar test equipment (6 probes with two liters capacity each) was used in a conventional assay method: rapid mixing, flocculation and sedimentation (Xaja Truck Light Wire Automotive Cable Trailer Wiring Harness). Two liters of raw water were transferred to each 2 L probes. The coagulant was dosed just after starting the rapid mixing step. All experiments were carried out in room temperature at 24°C (±1°). After sedimentation time, samples were collected from 7 cm below the water surface for subsequent analysis. Turbidity, pH, temperature and total phosphorus were measured in the collected sample. A subsample was filtrated (1.2 µm membrane) to measure chlorophyll-aand also UV254absorbance (1 cm quartz cell; Shimadzu spectrophotometer). UV254High Quality Meat Pie Making Machine with Different Mould Shape(DOM), mainly as humic substances (En71 Approved Baby Electric Toy Bike Kids Battery Motorcycle).

| Flocculation | 30 | 20 min | 20 s-1 |
| Sedimentation | 0 | 30 min | 3 m day-1 |
2.4. Data analysis
PAC performance was evaluated in terms of removal efficiency (R.E.)Pre Hot Dipped Galvanized Steel Pipe Cattle Fence, as percentage reduction of chlorophyll-aand total phophorus concentration, turbidity and UV254absorbance. The chosen dose is the minimal dose required to reduce in 50% the values of the variables. We evaluated correlations between the PAC performance at the chosen dose and initial chlorophyll-aconcentration and pH using Spearman correlation test (r; α< 0.05).

3.2. PAC performance
The pH decreased as PAC dose increased with the coagulant application but final pH was always above 6.5 (data not shown). In general, the removal efficiency increased sharphly from dose 0 to 4 mg Al.L-1, achieving higher values between the dose 4 to 6 mg Al.L-1for all variables (PA66+GF Polishing Injection Auto Plastic Parts Mould Manufacturer). Then, two situations were observed: the increasing in the dose did not cause an increasing in the efficiency for total phosphorus, chlorophyll-aand turbidity removal; or the efficiency increased continuously with the increasing of the Al dose for UV254High Quality Cheap Custom Small Kids Exercise Outdoor Playground with Slide%. None Al dose was efficient in removing at least 50% of total phosphorus, turbidity, UV254and chlorophyll-afor Passagem das Traíras reservoir (High-Class Sld-6121 Paper Sticker High Speed Slitting Machine). The increasing in Al dose from 6 to 10 mg Al.L-1decreased the chlorophyll-aremoval efficiency for Cruzeta and Passagem das Traíras reservoirs (Border Fencingd).
Figure 1Removal efficiency (%) for total phosphorus (TP), turbidity, humic substances (UV254) and chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) in raw water from Dourados (DOU), Timbaúba (TIM), Boqueirão (BOQ), Cruzeta (CRU), Gargalheiras (GAR) and Passagem das Traíras (PT) reservoirs, after coagulation-flocculation with different concentrations of aluminium (0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 mg Al L-1) and 30 minutes of sedimentation.
For most reservoirs, the minimal dose required to reduce in at least 50% the concentrations of the variables was 4 mg Al.L-1(Safety Shoes Anti-Slip Silicone Rubber Crampons OEM Factory). This dose resulted in turbidity values ≤ 10 NTU, total phosphorus concentration ≤ 50 µg.L-1and chlorophyll-aconcentration ≤ 15 µg.L-1for Cruzeta, Timabúba e Dourados reservoirs. Boqueirão reservoir water achieved a turbidity of 10.3 NTU and had total phophorus concentration reduced to values below 50 µg L-1but clorophyll-aconcentration remained above 15 µg.L-1. The total phosphorus, turbidity and UV254removal efficiency for dose of 4 mg Al.L-1was significantly negatively correlated with the initial chlorophyll-aconcentration and pH (Outdoor Artificial Wood Plastic Playground Equipment on Promotion (HK-50011B)). The highest total phosphorus and turbidity removal were observed for chlorophyll-aconcentration range of 18.8-39.9 µg.L-1and pH range of 6.8-7.9. The highest UV254removal was observed for the same pH range but for even lower chlorophyll-aconcentration (18.8-27.3 µg.L-1).

4. Discussion
In general,Steel Jacket Steam Insulation Pipeline Production Best Quality, but its efficiency was affected by chlorophyll-aand humic substances concentration. We suggested that 4 mg Al.L-1is the best dose (better cost-benefit) to be applied in most of reservoirs tested. This dose changed the trophic state of water from eutrophic to oligo-mesotrophic conditions in Cruzeta, Timabúba e Dourados reservoirs and had intermediary effects on Boqueirão water in laboratory tests. The efficiency in total phosphorus removal is reported for in-lake PAC application (LG936 LG938 Front End Loader Parts Gas Spring 29330011391;Colorful LED Electric Submersible Pond Rockery Fountain Water Pump;360ml Glassware/Glass Bottle/Honey Jar/Jar for Bird′s Nest;Mobile Smart Board). However,Best Key Machine Sec-E9 High Security Key Cutting Machine Built-in Data.
The evaluation of PAC performance was investigated in terms of removal efficiency of variables after settling time of thirty minutes. Low performances indicates problems in sedimentation which can caused by poor coagulation or flocculation. High chlorophyll-aconcentration,Good Quality White and Brown Paper Soup Containers.Impulse Plastic Sprinkler Irrigation Traveling Lawn Sprinkler for Garden, turbidity and UV254removal efficiency are correlated with higher values in initial pH and chlorophyll-aconcentrations. Initial pH has been reported to affect coagulation performance of PAC (Plastic Casement Window). In the maximal PAC performance pH was found to be around the neutral (Good Mechanical Grade B 3240 Epoxy Insulation Fiberglass Sheet;Refrigeration Air Conditioner 18000 BTU 2HP Compressor Malaysia Panasonic 2js324D). Coagulation is favorable for a pH range of 6.0-7.0 due to presence of positively charged Al species promoting flock formation (Recoil Steel Hot Coiled Extension Coil Compression Heavy Duty Spring) which determines the coagulation performance (UV-Resistant Epoxy Resin Logo PU Epoxy Dome Labels). The dose of 4 mg Al.L-1resulted in pH >8.0 in Gargalheiras and Passagem das Traíras water thereby making the coagulation difficult. It has been suggested that high alkaline waters requires a higher PAC dose to achieve pH values favorable to coagulation ( IPS 720*1520 Display Android 9.0).

Algae cells contains components that provide a density lower than water to allow them to stay at euphotic zone. Lipid accumulation, mucilage production, ionic regulation and gas vesicules are components of algal cell to avoid sedimentation (Wholesale Promotional Children Painting Apron). Extracellular and surface-Plumbing Fitting Water Connect Black Surface 1/2 Malleable Iron Flat Seat Conical Union(Pvc Decking Foam Board,Poultry Farming Automatic Chicken Feeding Pan System). Lipopolysaccharide on cell surface ofMicrocystis aeruginosaproduced by the excess of growth exhibited inhibitory effects on PAC coagulation (600W Mini Lathe Metalworking 7 X 14 Tool Turning Machine), which can be one important cause of the increase in coagulant demand in algae-rich waters (Custom High Quality Clear BOPP Adhesive Tape for Carton Sealing).China Products/Suppliers. China Wholesale Crystal Liquor Bottle with Frosting and Decal(Automatic Concrete Paving Interlocking Block Brick Making Machine), particularly humic susbtances. Humic substances are highly negatively charged (Chair), which increases with increasing the pH and by adsorbing onto the surfaces of natural particles (OEM Custom Cotton Twill Flat Top Military Army Hat and Cap). Maximal UV254removal was observed to be found around pH 6.0 (Wood Grain Vinyl Films/Self Adhesive Decorative Paper for Furniture). The aquatic humic substances form complexes with dissolved aluminium species which are removed by adsorbing onto a solid, making the coagulation difficult in waters with both algae and humic susbtances (Attractive Kids Trampoline Park for Jump Baby Indoor Soft Play Equipment Theme Parks for Sale).
In summary we consider PAC application a good restoration technique for Cruzeta, Timbaúba and Dourados reservoirs.Heat Insulation and Fireproof Composite Sandwich Wall Panel.
