Introduction Coagulation-flocculation followed by
sedimentation, filtration and disinfection, often by chlorine, is used worldwide in the water treatment industry before the distribution of treated water to consumers (Peavy 1995).
However recent studies have pointed out several serious drawbacks of using Aluminium salts.

In situation where high concentrations of alum are needed, lime is also added to raise the pH of water, thereby facilitating the treatment.
The cost of procuring these chemicals is increasing rapidly and most developing countries are finding it difficult to cope.
Therefore, where cheaper alternatives can be found, to replace or supplement the conventional treatment chemicals, their use would be a welcome benefit for the poorer less developed countries.

Natural Coagulant Vs Inorganic Coagulant
Drawbacks of Alum Alzhemeiers disease and similar health related
problems associated with residual aluminum in treated water.
It produces large sludge volumes. It require pH Alkalinity adjustment. Low efficiency in coagulation of cold water. It is costly and require high foreign exchange.

Advantage of Moringa oleiferaCoagulant over Alum It is natural, completely non-toxic. The M. Oleifera seed extract appears to have
natural buffering capacity so, no pH alkalinity adjustments are required.
Beside level of turbidity it reduces the level of microorganism in water.
It is completely biodegradable. The volume of sludge produced is considerably
less in case of Moringa than in case of alum. Introduction Aim &

Drawbacks of Moringa oleifera
At present availability of seeds is a problem it require mass cultivation.
The costs of the Shelled Seed powder of M.Owill probably higher then the cost of alum at present.
The water treated by M. oleifera produces odourafter two days from treatment.
Another disadvantage water extract increases Dissolved Organic Carbon in treated water.

A series of experiments was conducted on three synthetic raw water turbidities viz. 50, 150, and 450 NTU.
Residual turbidity was used as the parameter to judge the performance of the process.

Conclusions
Moringa oleifera seeds present a viable alternative to alum. Increase dosage of Moringa oleifera lead to decrease
turbidity upto the optimum dosage after which the residual turbidity increases due to floc restabilization Increasing initial turbidity, optimum dose is subsequently found to increase.
Requirement dose for Moringa oleifera for both Shelled blended and shelled blended oil extracted was higher than alum all over the turbidities range from 50- 450 NTU.

Methodology Materials & Methods
The oil content in the seed will form an emulsion or film coating which may inhibit the contact with the surface of reaction and thus reduce floc formation. Shelled blend oil extracted Moringa oleifera has been found to be more effective than the shelled blended seeds as a primary coagulant for turbid water.
It is easy to prepare the suspension and can be use as household water treatment.
23
M. oleifera seed contains 40 % oil by weight & hence after oil extraction waste product “presscake” contain active component affecting coagulation in water treatment, therefore farmers can promote for cultivation.
Using M. oleifera as a replacement coagulant for proprietary coagulants meets the meets the needs for water technology in developing countries which is simple to use, robust and cheap to both install and maintain sustainable as household coagulant.

Moringa oleifera is a consumer friendly and environment friendly low alternative for rural areas or small scale water treatment plant. M. oleifera is a renewable resource can be grown on large scale.
Research should therefore continue in this area so as to apply it to small and large scale water treatment in tropical development countries.
