Evaluating the Application of Cationic Acacia Tannins in Wastewater Treatment as Bio-Based Alternative to Synthetic Flocculants
Polyacrylamide (PAM), the most widely used flocculant in wastewater treatment, has raised sustainability concerns because it is derived from fossil-based raw materials. This study evaluated cationic tannins derived from Acacia as a bio-based alternative to PAM for the chemical treatment of dairy wastewater. Jar tests c...
