Alternativas Tecnológicas en Agua y Saneamiento para el Sector Rural. Ministerio de Ambiente, Vivienda y Desarrollo Territorial (MAVDT). “Potential of using plant extracts for purification of shallow well water in Malawi”. Soap, toilets and taps: A foundation for healthy children. United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF). “Utilization of plant-based natural coagulants as future alternatives towards sustainable water clarification”. oleífera seed extract had the greatest turbidity removal effi ciency even when using an initial turbidity higher than 150 NTU, achieving a coagulant activity up to 98%. The optimal extract dosage was found to be between 10 mg/L and 40 mg/L obtaining removal effi ciencies from 40% (turbidity lower than 100 NTU) to 90% (initial turbidity higher than 150 NTU) for extracts of stems H. Although the Total Organic Carbon (TOC) is an important parameter of the water quality, it was not included in this study because it has been found that the Sinú river turbidity is from sedimentary origin and its stream has a low organic load. With Jar tests, the turbidity removal effi ciencies as a function of percent activity coagulant dosages applied between 5 mg/L to 200 mg/L was determined. trigonus (Cactus), exudate gum Albizia saman (Campano), bark Guazuma ulmifolia (Guácimo) and bark and seed of Moringa oleífera (Moringa) in raw water samples taken from the Sinú river with initial turbidity levels between 56 and 300 nephelometric turbidity units (NTU). Five natural coagulants extracts in saline were evaluated: stems Hylocereus cf.
