The individual processes achieved removal to different degrees. The flocculation and sedimentation units yielded the highest removal of 93% at an alum dose of 320 mg/L. In addition with the batch study, coliphage removal by the flocculation process was independent of changes in turbidity of the raw water, the extended detention time of flocculation time; but, it was affected by the types and doses of coagulant used. Alum, ferric chloride and cationic polyelectrolyte were satisfactory coagulants to remove coliphage and turbidity from the water, Increased dosages increased both removals to some extent. The efficiency of coliphage removal in rapid sand filtration was low, ranging from 2.3 to 38.6 % The final chlorination stage was the most effective in removing coliphages and effluent coliphage could not be detected by plaque-assay method when residual chlorine was maintained at 0.4-0.6 mg/L. The total removal of the plant resulting from these subsequent units was considered 100 %.  0aWaterxPurificationxFlocculation1 aHanaki, Keisuke, eChairperson0 aChongrak Polprasert,eExamination Committee1 aShin, Hang-Sik, eExamination Committee2 aCarl Duisberg Gesellschaft e.v., eScholarhship Donor2 aAsian Institute of Technology.tThesis ;vno.
