Basic information

*This value is acquired by observing the monitor of the system while the machine is running and the plant is in operation. It is an average value, more or less 100 liters, which is not a problem. It's important to know that the machine can clarify a maximum of 400 liters per minute.

*The pump for injecting coagulant or flocculant has a maximum capacity of 50 ml per minute.

Test mixture for coagulant or floculant

*To make the test mixture, how much ml water did you use?

*For the test mixture, how many grams of chemical (coagulant or flocculant) did you add to the water?

Test on dirty water:

*After preparing the mixture, you tested it in a certain amount of dirty water to see how much of this mixture is needed for coagulation or flocculation. You used a graduated syringe to add the chemical to the dirty water, and slowly added one milliliter or less until you observed that it was working effectively. The coagulant should be added first; its task is to attract the dirt particles, but even when united, the particles remain light. That's why you add the flocculant, which makes them heavier and causes them to settle. There are different types of flocculants, some that cause settling and some that bring particles to the surface, so testing is required to determine the optimal amount needed. For your purpose, you need one that causes settling of the dirt.

*How many milliliters of chemical did you add to the dirty water before seeing the reaction?
