Have you though to use your water hyacinth as a natural coagulant. I am not 100% sure that it works but you should run tests with wastewater and polymer. You might have good surprises!

Good to see the new orientation of use of water hyacinth as a coagulant. Have you any research paper on the content mentioned. Secondly is there any ongoing plant which uses the water hyacinth as coagulant. Can it be used as low cost and natural coagulant with good efficacy.

Please share such kind of research to see water hyacinth as coagulant.

I don't know for water hyacinth but it works with tannin of rose for example. It is a natural coagulant, and it has the property to not coagulate the phosphorus. It has been used more and more in europe, even if it is still a small market. Run your tests! You will know!
