h1. Alum Aging Effects


h2. Experimental Setup

The Demo Plant was run at a flow rate of 100mL/min with fresh, one, two, three, and four day old alum solution while recording the turbidity with respect to time for each run. From this it was determined if aged alum has an effect on particle coagulation.

h2. Conclusion

The results suggest that there is no conclusive evidence showing that allowing alum solution to age effects its ability to coagulate particles.
