Foam Filtration Current Research

Flat Foam Sheet Experiments with coagulated particles

Currently, we are testing the filtering capacity of foam under the worst case lab conditions, which consists of filtering water containing unflocculated clay particles. This represents the worst case senario, because the particles are small and uncoagulated. We would like to test the filtering capacity of the foam under conditions that are more reflective of conditions in an AguaClara plant. This involves adding alum and a rapid mix tube to our system, in order to produce larger particles, which will then lead to, hopefully, higher levels of colloid removal.
