Research

Tube Floc

• Document effects of varying
  • influent turbidity
  • alum dose
  • flocculator length
  • flow rate
• Develop the optimal relationship between G and Gθ
• Develop method to test optimal relationship between G and Gθ either by varying the flow rate in real time or by building a flocculator with a variable cross sectional area or using some other technique
• Help develop a method to transfer knowledge from the tube flocculator to full scale baffled flocculators.
