A series of experiments were run at a constant flow rate with a low, realistic alum dose of 1.5 mg/L in order to determine whether foam filtration acted as either a function of depth, or a function surface area.
Experiment Set 3: Horizontal Filtration
In order to optimize the plan area required for a filtration unit, we would like to be able to utilize horizontal filtration, in which raw water would flow horizontally through a vertically positioned filter. Therefore, a series of experiments were run to determine if this would be possible.
