Full Description

Research using Smoluchowski's equation has led to a mathematical model of the flocculation process. This model was tested against actual treatment plant performance for particle size distribution. Using difference conditions, the model successfully predicted changes in small or large particles, but not both. The model compared favorably with most experimental results but needs improvement to predict the effects of changes in fluid shear and particle concentration. Includes 25 references, tables, figures.
