Can the upflow velocity in the AguaClara sedimentation tank be significantly (factor of 2 to 10) increased without degrading performance?
- What geometry is required for the floc blanket section of a high rate sedimentation tank?
-Is it important that the floc blanket section of the reactor (including any internal components designed to increase floc blanket concentration) have an axis of symmetry that is vertical to eliminate excessive transport of flocs by gravity in a horizontal direction?
-Can plates (zig zag, porous, sloped or horizontal, or other geometries) increase the concentration of a floc blanket at high upflow velocities?
-Should the plate settlers be submerged (perhaps 2.5 cm) in the floc blanket?
