Table 2.

Comparison of efficiency of bioflocculant and chemical flocculants.

Flocculant Dosage (mg/mL) Flocculating activity (%)
Bioflocculant 0.2 94.88 ± 0.24a
Polyethylimine 0.3 86.95 ± 0.28b
Alum 0.8 77.13 ± 2.40c
Polyacrylamide 0.1 95.02 ± 0.21a
Ferric chloride 1.0 41.89 ± 0.10d

Percentage flocculating activities with different alphabetic letters are significantly different (p < 0.05).
