Claims25
A composition, comprising:
- a water-soluble polymeric encapsulant;
- and
- a coagulant or flocculant encapsulated in the water soluble polymer encapsulant.
A method, comprising:
- providing a composition, comprising:
- a water-soluble polymeric encapsulant;
- and
- a coagulant or flocculant encapsulated in the water soluble polymer encapsulant;
- and clarifying a portion of water by contacting the composition to the portion of water effective to cause at least partial dissolution of the water-soluble polymeric encapsulant effective to release the encapsulated coagulant or flocculant to the portion of water.
