Abstract

Direct addition of dry composite flocculants in powder form to a colloidal suspension shows high reproducibil-ity of experimental data compared to the addition of a flocculant solution to the suspension. Utilizing this ad-vantage, the effects of inorganic and ionic polymer flocculants on turbidity removal have been investigated. Based on these observations, a procedure for determining the optimum composition of a composite dry powder flocculant for turbidity removal is proposed.
