Abstract

Abstract A literature survey about floc structure research is given. In this investigation, hydrolysing metal salts were used during the coagulation-flocculation of very diluted kaolinite suspensions. The different experiments are briefly described and explained. The influence of the kinetic process parameters on the floc strength is used to prove the validity of a four level organisation of hydroxydc floc aggregates. The different levels of organisation are: primary particles, flocculi, flocs and floc aggregates. The bonds between the particles are elastic. The influence of the kinetic process parameters on the floc structure is deduced as well.
