The dependence of sedimentation efficiency on susupension concentration
The author presents the research of the polydispersive suspension grain composition as the function of suspension concentration. Both research and theoretical consideration confirmed that in the diluted suspension in some rang of concentration there is an increase of the settling velocity causing the increasing sedimentation efficiency, and moreover casing the decreasing concentration of the solid particle phase in the pure suspension in spite of the increase of the concentration of the solid particle phase in the being clarified suspension.
