Flocculation is a widely used phase separation technique in industrial unit processes and is
typically observed in many natural flow systems. Advances in colloidal chemistry over the …

Mineral scale deposits, corrosion, suspended matter, and microbiological growth are factors
that must be controlled in industrial water systems. Research on understanding the …

The paper deals with the dependence of aggregate properties on the shear rate (G) in the
aggregation process and at steady state. Natural raw water and ferric sulphate were …

Bimodal flocculation of marine and estuarine sediments describes the aggregation and
breakage process in which dense microflocs and floppy macroflocs change their relative …

This paper presents the results of aeration rate effect on antifouling properties of
polypropylene (PP)/TiO 2 nanocomposite membrane in membrane bioreactor (MBR) system …

While most membrane bioreactor (MBR) research focuses on improving membrane filtration
through air scour, backwashing and chemical cleaning to physically counteract fouling …

Estuarine and coastal regions are often characterized by a high variability of suspended
sediment concentrations in their waters, which influences dredging projects, contaminant …

The observation of floc size distribution (FSD) for quantitative description of its properties
over a sufficient size range, from a few microns to a few millimeters, is still a challenge in …

The book is intended as a handbook providing detailed instructions for the correct
conducting of jar tests, which are needed for the optimisation of the coagulation/flocculation …

Abstract An enhanced Quadrature Method Of Moments (QMOM) is employed to solve the
population balance model (PBM) with a maximum of eight size classes for the purpose of …
