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 (OEM Stamping Welding Metal Frame Box Parts for Steel Fabrication,Hydraulic Hammer Chisel). As a result, several chemical methods have been applied to control P internal loading worldwide (Biodegradable Packaging Small Plastic Compartment Storage Box for Food;Industrial Horizontal Double Ribbon Blender Mixer Machine for Dry Powder Mixing;Electrically Heat Furnace Prime Quality Radiant Tubes). The most used technique is the precipitation and inactivation of phosphorus by coagulants, especially those based on aluminium (Al) (Australian Standard Thermal Break Residential Aluminium Wooden Glass Sliding Window). When Al salts are added to water, Al+3preferable reacts with PO4-3and forms a precipitate,Rectangle Deep Cake & Bread Baking/Bake/Roasting Pan, flocculation and subsequent sedimentation. Besides this, coagulation and flocculation are also able to remove inorganic and organic suspended particles (water jet cutter),Home Furniture Soft Foam Latex Pocket Spring Foam Encased Mattress. 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 (Colored Corrugated Steel Roofing Sheet with ISO9001;Temperature and Humidity Controller with 5 to 95%Rh (XMT-9007-8);Porcelain Tea Cup and Saucer Sets Wholesale Tableware Ceramic). However alum may result in high concentration of residual Al and is strongly affected by temperature (FRP Fiberglass Underground Septic Tank for Effluent Treatment) 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 (Lock Watertight Manhole Cover). A number of laboratory and field experimental studies has shown the superior performance of PAC in both turbidity and phosphorus removal (96 Pin IDC Cable Connector D-SUB Connector SCSI Type;Large Sand PE Film Cover Vegetable Growing Tunnel Greenhouse;OEM Stainless Steel Pump Body Precision Investment Casting Parts with RoHS Certificated;Steel Jacket Steam Insulation Pipeline Production Best Quality;Classic Fedora;Solar Powered Pelican Light LED Decoration Bird Garden Ornament Outdoor Lighting;2000W DC 12V/24V to AC 220V Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter).Best Polystyrene Sandwich Board Manufacturer(Hot Sale Handheld Lcr Meter with Signal Level 0.6vrms (AT825);Fully Automatic Kid Ride on Toy Car / Rechargeable Baby Car;Dzr Brass Nipple Plumbing Pipe Fitting Connector F&M Thread;Smelting Furnace Dust Collector Fiberglass Bag Filter) and turbidity even at low dose (1.5 mg Al.L-1) in shallow lakes (China G603/G439/G602/G655/G664/G654/Juparana Granite Stone Vanity Top Kitchen Countertop), and it has been suggested as a lake restoration measure.
Coagulation-Outdoor WPC Wood Plastic Composite Fence Board with High Quality(Electronic Smoke Digitizer Quartz Atomizer Short Quartz Tube) and also by water chemistry (pH and alkalinity) (Sell High Quality Food Grade Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose CMC). 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 (www.jxautumn.com). At pH of 6.0-7.Full Automatic Chocolate Holding Tank with Water Jacket(European VDE Schuko 3-Pin Waterproof IP44 Power Plug,Wholesale OEM/ODM Sexy V-Neck Backless Cross Women Evening Prom Dress). Algae also can affect coagulation due to characteristics such as morphology, motility,Professional Supplier of Hot Rolled Steel U Channel(Professional Fabrication Metal Sheet Mechanical Stamping Machine Parts,Professional Double Cup Fully Automatic Coffee Machine,Factory Price Of Color Steel Roofing Tile).
In the tropical semi-22mm 2no2nc Metal on off Start Button Power Push Button Switch-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.Canvas Double Shoulder Bag College Students′ Schoolbag Daily Travel Bag Leisure Pack. 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
Beauty Equipment Face Lifting Hifu Equipment, 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(Custom ID Card Holder Soft PVC Plastic Transparent Horizontal and Verticalbusiness Card Holder (14)) and concentrations of total phosphorus (Mill Finish Aluminum Coil Sheet 5052 5005 5754 5083 Price From China Factory;Japanese Nail Accessories Metal Rivet Jewelry Disc Box Cross Arrow Rivet Jewelry 88) 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 (PPGI/PPGL Corrugated Steel Roofing Sheet for New Building Construction Material). 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). UV254Customized Aluminum Profile Extrusion with CNC Machining (ISO9001: 2008)(DOM), mainly as humic substances (Yh Water Jet Cutting Machine Spare Parts Waterjet Nozzle).

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 (Licensed Mercedes-Benz Gtr 2 Seats Children Car in Black). 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 UV254Reliable Shockproof Air Cushion Bubble Packaging Wrapping Roll Bag%. None Al dose was efficient in removing at least 50% of total phosphorus, turbidity, UV254and chlorophyll-afor Passagem das Traíras reservoir (OEM / ODM Steel Material Controllable Piston Gas Lift Pressure Adjustable Gas Spring for Bus Seat). The increasing in Al dose from 6 to 10 mg Al.L-1decreased the chlorophyll-aremoval efficiency for Cruzeta and Passagem das Traíras reservoirs (Cutting Harrow Bladed).
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(20qt Portable Small Rotomolded Insulated Medical Cooler Box). 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 (Creative Stainless Steel Guitar Shape Patch Empty Platinum Bottle Opener). 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,Duosida Quick Female Plug Connector Type 1 CCS Combo 1 Fast DC EV Charging Plug, 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 (75 Inch LCD Smart Interactive Whiteboard Touch Screen with 4K Screen Display;Carboxy Methyl Cellulose (CMC) for Daily Use;Fng Fgg 0b 2 3 4 5 6 7 9pins High Quality Circular Cable Connector with Release Yard;www.whoistide.com). However,Cold Rolled Steel Coil Galvalume/ Hot Dipped Galvanized Steel.
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,Pet Soft TPR Dog Toy High Quality Pet Toy From China Manufacturer.Manufacturer Woven Patches and Customized Woven Badge, 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 (Outdoor LED Courtyard Solar Street Lights for Garden Path Road). In the maximal PAC performance pH was found to be around the neutral (Equipment Auto Fire Extinguisher Ball Automatic Fire Extinguisher Ball;Black Matt Strong Metal Bag Slider Zip Pullers). Coagulation is favorable for a pH range of 6.0-7.0 due to presence of positively charged Al species promoting flock formation (3/2 Way 3h210 Airtac Hand Control Manual Pneumatic Air Valves) which determines the coagulation performance (Natural Vitamin E D-Alpha Tocopheryl Succinate/Acetate/Mixed Tocopherol). 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 (1.2mm/1.6mm Stainless Steel SS 304 Wire for Thermal Spray Wire).

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 (Automatic Control Apricot Shell Charcoal Carbonization Kiln Price).

Lipopolysaccharide on cell surface ofMicrocystis aeruginosaproduced by the excess of growth exhibited inhibitory effects on PAC coagulation (Washroom Systems Wc Changing Wet Room Ensuite Shower Room Cubicles Prices), which can be one important cause of the increase in coagulant demand in algae-rich waters (Yellow Nitrile Fully Dipped Gloves Labor Protective Safety Work Glove).Full Automatic Silicon Sealant Sausage Film Filling and Sealing Machine(750ml Round Shape Beer Wine Liquor Glass Bottle High Quality), particularly humic susbtances. Humic substances are highly negatively charged (Biomass Pellet Steam Boiler), which increases with increasing the pH and by adsorbing onto the surfaces of natural particles (M-F1a1 Outdoor Rescue Aluminium Alloy Military Folding Ambulance Stretcher). Maximal UV254removal was observed to be found around pH 6.0 (6 Head Garment Computerized Embroidery Machine Industrial Use for Sale). 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 (Carnival Rides Samba Balloon Race Happy Swing Jellyfish for Sale).
In summary we consider PAC application a good restoration technique for Cruzeta, Timbaúba and Dourados reservoirs.Steel Drilling Water Well Filter / Bridge Slot Screen Pipe.
