Measurement method for in situ particle settling velocity

The most meaningful parameter to determine the treatment efficiency of large scale sedimentation tanks is the settling velocity of suspended solids. However it is difficult to measured representative settling velocity because of the instability of suspended solids. A water elutriation system was tested to assess the treatment efficiency of sedimentation tanks. In laboratory tests the flow condi...

Field Measurement of Particle Settling Velocity

Many stormwater management practices depend on sedimentation as their primary removal mechanism, but the settling velocity distribution of particles in runoff from a specific watershed is rarely known. A simple and effective method to characterize settling velocity distribution is needed to improve the design of stormwater management practices. Elutriation devices have been used to characterize...

Settling velocity characterization of aquacultural solids

A top-loading settling column is described and used to characterize the settling properties of the solids in the discharge water from a commercial rainbow trout production facility. Mass-based and phosphorus-based settling curves are presented. The median settling velocity on a mass-basis for the settleable solids was 1.7 cm s. The median settling velocity for the settleable phosphorus was 1.15...
