ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a process for clarifying an algae-laden waste water stream wherein the waste water stream is deaerated and passed through a substantially light-free environment before coagulating aids are added to the water stream and the water stream is clarified in a coagulated solids settling step. The deaeration and light-free travel allow the algae to be more easily settled.
