Prove the Relationship between Particle Size, Turbidity Fluctuations by Image Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
A Nephelometric turbidimeter coupled with a data acquisition unit was used to measure turbidity every second. The standard deviation (SD) of the measured turbidity was proportional to the square root of the floc size; a greater SD indicated larger floc sizes. Than the image analysis (Matrox Inspector V2.2) was used to measure the mean particle size to confirm whether Nephelometric technology is suitable for directly applying to particle size analysis

Morphological and Crystallographic Characterization of Nanoparticles by Granulometry Image Analysis and Rietveld Refinement Methods
The particle size distribution of the resultant cobalt ferrite samples was determined from Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images using the granulometry image analysis method. Results showed the nanosized particles of the samples. The X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) patterns of samples were also analyzed by Rietveld refinement method. The results indicated that the precipitated sample at 95 <sup...
متن کاملEmulsion Stability: Determination from Turbidity
A novel technique for studying the stability of emulsions has been developed. Owing to the fact that emulsion turbidity is a function of particle concentration and size, the stability of emulsions can be determined by measuring the change in turbidity with time. The relationship between turbidity and particle size and concentration is derived for a polydispersed emulsion. The stability of acous...
متن کاملNew insights into the transport of sediments and microorganisms in karst groundwater by continuous monitoring of particle-size distribution
Mobile particles play crucial roles for contaminant transport in karst aquifers, but few studies have investigated the relationships between sediment dynamics and contaminants. This is partly due to the diffi culty in monitoring suspended particles: Turbidity is easy to measure but does not deliver detailed information on the size and type of particles; mineralogical laboratory analyses are lab...
متن کاملReconstruction of Sea Level Changes using Magnetic Susceptibility Variations in Southeastern Caspian Sea
Magnetic susceptibility is one of the most important tools for monitoring the sediment composition during environmental studies. In this research, in order to reconstruct the Caspian Sea level changes, magnetic susceptibility variations were used during the studies of 5 sedimentary cores (K1, K3, K5, K7, N1), collected from bottom sediments of Gorgan Bay. Samples were analyzed for grain size, t...
