Our experiment shows that how we can reduce the consumption of coagulant for the treatment of effluent
generated from the machining process of an automobile industry. We have referred the method of coagulation and
flocculation in which the coagulant is Ferric Chloride (FeCl3) and flocculant is Polyelectrolyte. Since the ferric chloride
is hazardous in nature because it is acidic and also the cost for the treatment of effluent in an industry is quiet high, we
have tested whether reducing the dilution of ferric chloride in treatment of effluent will be under the permissible limit
given by guidelines.
