This work will develop an on-line floc sizer device in Brazil and investigate the integrity of flocs when they are exposed to shear associated with passage through a Rapid Gravity Filter (RGF). The floc sizer device is based on the principle of turbidity fluctuations and was largely developed by Professor John Gregory at University College London (UCL). Here, we propose: to develop a devi…
The objective of this study is to evaluate the floc size formed during the flocculation step in Water Treatment Plants (WTP), its shear strength and the capacity of the sheared floc (breakage) to return to its original size (reversibility) using a metal coagulant (alum), that is the same one applied in the WTP located in Sao Jose dos Campos, Sao Paulo, Brazil - and two polymeric flocculan…
