FeCl and polyacrylamide (PAM) had been used to investigate the effect of coagulation, flocculation, and their combination on algae cells and extracellular organic matter (EOM) at different phases. PAM tended to aggregate particle-like substances, while FeCl could interact with EOM. The content of EOM kept rising during the algae growth cycle, while OD peaked at about 3.
