Chose coag dosage from 0.5 -2.5 mg/L and measured the effluent absorbances and turbidity. The turbidity should be mainly contributed by clay particles and absorbances should be mainly contributed by humic acid based on previous experimental results

At 0.5 mg/L, very small floc blanket formed, turbidity was 14 NTU

After we also got results for other coag dosages, we talked w/ Monroe and think we may need to change our experimental methods
