Future experiments relating to saturated water in the plant could include bubble removal before floc blanket formation. However, the true effects of saturated air on the experiment cannot be fully determined until the chemical drop waterfall effect is controlled. When chemicals are dropped into the system, such as alum, they create surface bubbles. It is not well understood whether �if- bubbles created from the hydraulic jump in the chemical dose controller falling jets are the potential cause of worsened performance in plate settler effluent or if worsened performance is caused more by the presence of supersaturated air in some plants.
