Abstract

In this paper, we analyzed the mechanism of coagulation sedimentation process in water treatment and proposed a mechanism model according to the population balances and the characteristics of the system. The model consists of mixing, flocculation and sedimentation, and reflects the relationship of original water turbidity, coagulant dosage and the water turbidity after sedimentation. Furthermore, we simulated and analyzed the effects of mutations in original water turbidity with different initial values and different coagulant dosages on the water turbidity after sedimentation. The studies show that the model can be used for the study of coagulant dosage control, and contribute to a better understanding of the mechanism of coagulation sedimentation process.
