Parameters Affecting Process of Particles Sedimentation: III
Kulaviak, Lukáš ; Růžička, Marek ; Drahoš, Jiří ; Hladil, Jindřich
The aim of our contribution is to study the effect of the particles properties on their settling behaviour in solid-liquid suspensions. Generally, the particles interact mutually in a complex way. They are also coupled with the motion of the liquid whose flow they generate. The resulting behaviour depends on many mechanical particle properties (roughness, shape, size, abrasive hardness, texture, fine particle presence) and electrochemical properties of the interface between the particles and water (surface tension, zeta-potential, electrostatic potential, etc.).
