Abstract

Poly (ethylene-co-p-phenylene diamine) hydrochloride, poly (aminomethine co-4, 4- diaminodiphenyl) hydrochloride and poly (ethylene-co-4, 4- diaminodiphenyl) hydrochloride were used to remove turbidity from synthetic turbid water, prepared as fine clay suspension is top water. These compouds displayed typical polyelectrolyte behaviour either alone or in combination with alum. They were put neutral (pH 7) and basic (pH 10) mediums.
 Laboratory studies have shown that these compouds give good performance individually in acidic medium, where in neutral medium they give good performance, only, in combination with alum.
