Synthesising tannin-based coagulants for water and wastewater application: A review [PDF]
Coagulation-flocculation has been applied widely in water and wastewater treatment. Tannin, a natural watersoluble polyphenol that is present in most vegetable cells, has been widely accepted and applied as a plant-based coagulant.

Studies on recycling of various streams for water and nutrient supply in microalgae cultivation are encouraging. However, presence and subsequent accumulation of organic and inorganic molecules produced during microalgae growth or generated during post‐processing can limit the long‐term recycling potential of these streams.

GLYPHOSATE AND TURBIDITY REMOVAL IN WATER CONDITIONS BY CLARIFICATION WITH TANFLOC [PDF]
With the progress in the agriculture sector, improper domains of pesticides, herbicides, and insecticides have grown, which have been negatively affected the environment until the present day. Therefore, the present work has as objective to evaluate the efficiency of the natural coagulant Tanfloc in the clarification stage with respect the herbicide ...

Tannins from cashew tree (Anacardium occidentale) bark as a flocculant for water clarification
Concern about the overexploitation of natural resources has increased in recent decades, especially involving water and its treatment. Paradoxically, one of the sources of water pollution is the treatment itself, due to the use of chemical flocculants ...

Abstract It will be necessary to make efficient use of our resources if our society is to be converted into a bio‐based economy. Every year large side streams of bark are produced in sawmills and pulp mills. In addition to utilizing the bark for heat and electricity production, as happens today, high‐value chemical components could be extracted prior ...
