Abstract
The inorganics and modified coagulants have significantly influenced water and wastewater treatment for centuries. With rapid economic growth, high efficient, better performance, environmental-friendly have been the key ingredients for water and wastewater treatment in recent years. Therefore, more attention has been directed at synthesis preparation routes of inorganic coagulants which are characterized as green, sustainable and energy-saving. Because the hybrid materials and industrial wastes have been promising for preparation of these chemicals, and thus their applications have received wide attention. The present review is of much significance, especially in three research directions including industrial wastes reusing, diverse organic polymers introducing and the application of relative novel metal salts. In this review, their current states as well as their potential utilization in future were reviewed and suggested, respectively, which are particularly important for those water workers to improve their working efficiency in water treatment.
