secondary clarifiers with large areas are widely applied in wastewater treatment plants. a pilot study was conducted to examine the possibility of applying one and two-stage inclined tube settlers instead of conventional secondary clarifiers. tube diameter in the first stage of the two-stage settler was wide as the conventional ones, but in the second stage, it was narrow to improve the efficie...

Conventional water treatment plant generates two types of process wastes, filter back wash water and sludge. Characteristic studies of these wastes reveals that it contains high solids content, metals and bacteriological concentration, which are generally more than permissible disposable standards. Direct disposal of these wastes in to natural stream pollutes the receiving streams, affects huma...

drop size distribution in a mixer-settler is an essential design parameter, as obtaining drop size distribution will result in optimum performance of equipment. in this paper for obtaining drop size, several experiments have been performed with a single stage horizontal mixer-settler. a video technique has been used in order to measure the drop size in the mixer-settler with the help of a digit...

A theoretical model of foam as a consolidating continuum is proposed. The general model is applied to foam in a gravity settler. It is predicted that liquid drainage from foam in a gravity settler begins with a slow drainage stage. Next, a stage with faster drainage occurs where the drainage rate doubles compared to the initial stage. The experiments conducted within the framework of this work ...

In a recent comment, David Albouy claims that the data series we constructed for European settler mortality in Acemoglu, Johnson and Robinson (2001) suffers from “inconsistencies, questionable judgements, and errors.” He proposes two series, for “barracks” and “campaigns,” that he claims are better measures of settler mortality, and shows his recodings weaken or eliminate the first-stage relati...

An experimental study has been made of the hydrodynamics of a stage mixer-settler to obtain appropriate design information. In this paper several tests were done according to full factorial design of experiments with high reliability, since each test recurs seven times and the results of  them are very close to each other(P=1bar and T=25 °C). Sauter diameter in each test is determined with ...

In this paper, I argue that animal domestication, speciesism, and other modern human-animal interactions in North America are possible because of and through the erasure of Indigenous bodies and the emptying of Indigenous lands for settler-colonial expansion. That is, we cannot address animal oppression or talk about animal liberation without naming and subsequently dismantling settler colonial...

An experimental study has been conducted on the hydrodynamics of a stage mixer-settler to obtain an appropriate design. In this paper several tests was performed to investigate full factorial design of experiments. Since each test was repeated seven times, the repeatability of the test was confirmed (P=1 bar and T=25 °C). Sauter diameter was determined by photographing both the mix...
