Abstract

CORRELATIONS FOR COMPRESSIVE GRAVITY THICKENING AND APPLICATION TO PREDICTING SVIThe classical flux theory for gravity thickening of sludge can be formulated from a balance between viscous and gravitational forces on settling particles. The addition of a third force, the interparticle compressive force, allows simulation of additional behaviors, such as predicting sludge blanket height in underloaded thickeners, dynamic simulation of continuous thickening, and realistic...Author(s)Patrick PorcaroDavid A.
