material from fluid streams. The particles are usually solid, but
they can be small liquid droplets, and the fluid can be either a
liquid or a gas.
In this experiment an understanding on the sedimentation
process was explored. In sedimentation, particles are falling
from rest under the force of gravity. Solids will settle in a liquid
whose density is less than their own. Sedimentation
equipment for separation of solid particles from liquids by
gravitational sedimentation is designed to provide sufficient
time for the sedimentation to occur and to permit the overflow
and the sediment to be removed without disturbing the
separation. Sedimentation is very often used in the food
industry for separating dirt and debris from incoming raw
material, crystals from their mother liquor and dust or product
particles from air streams.
This experiment means to analyze a settling velocity curves of
different suspensions from a single batch test, determine the
effect of initial concentration of the suspensions on
sedimentation rate, determine the effect of initial suspension
height of the suspensions on sedimentation rate and lastly
determine the effect of adding coagulation in the sedimentation
rate.
