Pilot Study on Nucleation-Induced Pelleting Coagulation in Treatment of High-Algae Surface Water: Coagulant Dosage and Hydraulic Loading Optimization [PDF]
This study proposes a circulating pelletized fluidized bed (CPFB) with micro-sand loading for treating high-algae surface water. Key operational parameters (coagulant dosage, flow rate) were optimized to simultaneously remove algae, turbidity, and ...

Aggregates in fluidized beds: The effect of bonding angles on fluidization [PDF]
Fluidized beds consist of solid particles suspended in a tube by an ascending fluid. In liquids, it is not rare that particles adhere to each other, decreasing the solid–liquid contact area and the ratio between the tube and grain diameters ...
