Abstract
This paper describes the performance evaluation studies of Vikram PAC AC 100/S as a coagulant. It was observed that Vikram PAC AC 100/S acts as a good coagulant over a wide range of turbidity and produces large r and more readily settleable flocs than alum. The residual aluminium is less in Vikram PAC AC 100/S treated water than that in alum treated water. The sludge volume generated by vikram PAC AC 100/S is less tha n that generated by alum for attaining the same quality of settled wat er from a turbid raw water.
