This article presents simple improvements to coagulant dosing and water quality based on experience gained in the aftermath of the 2005 South Asian earthquake.Dorea, C.C., Bertrand, S., and Clarke, B.A. (2006) ‘Particle separation options for emergency water treatment’ Water, Science and Technology, Vol. 53, No. 7, pp. 253-260.
