The wider tube settlers, as expected, provided slightly more sensitive data. That is, the effluent turbidity was measurably impacted by changes in flow rate, floc blanket height, and tube diameter. The table above and the graph below illustrate the average effluent turbidity for the three diameters described in the methods section above.
