The basic objectives of this study were to gain a better understanding of the stoichiometry of the coagulation of organic color with ferric sulfate and to develop quantitative relationships that would permit the prediction and control of optimum coagulation conditions for efficient color removal. The primary objectives of this work were: to utilize the newer techniques of microelectrophoresis in a critical study of coagulation phenomena and stoichiometry as specifically applied to color removal with ferric sulfate; and, to determine whether microelectrophoresis could be applied as a practical method for determining optimum coagulation conditions in water treatment plants.
