Abstract:
Standard jar tests and full-scale plant studies were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of permanganate preoxidation as an aid to coagulation-flocculation of surface waters. The results of the Jar tests demonstrated that permanganate preoxidation obviously enhanced the coagulation-flocculation of the studied surface waters. Through full-scale plant studies, the positive effects of permanganate assistance in coagulation-flocculation of surface raters were confirmed by the turbidity reduction of about 4~11 FTU at permanganate dosages of 1~2 mg/L. It was observed that the size of flocs in th

Abstract:
The paper presents the results of an experimental pilot study on advanced flocculation of metal hydroxides that are precipitated from electroplating wastewater during pH-adjustment. A pipe-flocculator with a turbulent flow, to ensure proper mixing conditions, was used instead of a classical flocculation tank. The results of the study indicated a high efficiency of the process. The flocculation proceeded within 50-100 seconds, which was much less than is required during classical flocculation. Application of a pipe-flocculator results also in reduction of both capital and operating costs of the

Settling velocity of sediment increases if flocculating occurred, and this enlarges deposition in reservoirs.

Abstract:
The effectiveness of microalgae flocculation by pH increase was investigated using the jar test procedure. The results indicated that pH values between 11.8 and 12 induced extensive flocculation without need of adding magnesium. pH was increased by sodium hydroxide or calcium hydroxide. In both cases, the total solids abatement was more than 95% producing sludge of excellent settleability and good mechanical resistance quantified by a destructive test. The next step was the operation of a continuous flocculator which might optionally be packed with granular sand or inert resin. It was shown th

Abstract:
This study examined how ozone and permanganate preoxidation affect flocculation of Chodatella sp. cultures. Ozone caused cells release of extracellular organic matter (EOM) into the bulk water and altered the cell wall structure, detrimentally affecting algae flocculation. However, permanganate stressed cells, causing them to secrete EOM on cell surfaces, which can improve the absorbability of MnO2 during algae flocculation. In the presence of calcium, algae flocculation after permanganate preoxidation was appreciably increased due to Ca2 + functioning as a bridging agent between MnO2 and EOM.

Abstract:
The effectiveness of the microalgae flocculation by a fluidized bed of magnesium exchanger resin particles was investigated. The results indicated that the total suspended solids abatement could reach 90% at pH 11.5 while the superficial upflow velocity was 30 m/h which corresponds to a residence time through the flocculator less than 1 minute. The abatement remains steady even after exhaustion of the ion exchange capacity while the bed is continuously expanding which makes the resin regeneration easy and lowers the magnesium requirement. The extracted sludge is easily thickened. The destabili

The fine oolitic hematite ore (<20μm) is easily covered by the ore slime, therefore, it is processed very difficultly with traditional crafts, for example, gravity treatment, magnetic separation, and flotation. The tiny iron ore is unable to recycle effectively, bring about a large of useful minerals running off. It is indicated that the selective flocculation is effective separation craft in many research works.

By establishment of regression equation the main influence factor of flocculation and Settlement is ensured. The result shows that EPS has significant effect. The more the content of EPS, the poorer sludge characters. The polysaccharide makes important function during the process. It is hydrophilic substances. As polysaccharide is more, flocculation body will hold more water. At the same time, the separation of flocculation body and water is more difficult.

Flocculation using modified clays is a technique widely applied in the management of harmful algal blooms (HABs). Polyaluminum chloride (PAC) modified clay is an efficient flocculating agent in HAB control; however its effectiveness in black bloom management is still largely unknown. In the present study, PAC-modified clay was used to flocculate a black bloom under simulated flows. The deposition and resuspension of the black matter/clay flocs and the impact of the spreading of quartz sand to the flocs were quantitatively studied. The results showed that a dosage of 1.8 g/L PAC-modified clay (
