Study on the Mechanism of Hindered Sedimentation by ‘Unified Theory on Solid-Liquid Separation’
E-mail:
The entire procedure of hindered sedimentation has been calculated by the introduction of new boundary conditions to the ‘unified theory on solid-liquid separation.’ During this study, the hindered sedimentation was defined as ‘a process of sedimentation with transmission of the gravitational force between the particles due to contact.’ The lower concentration limit, on which the ‘unified theory on solid-liquid separation’ is based, could not be applied. To understand the mechanism of hindered sedimentation, variations in the porosity during sedimentation were calculated by using our theory.
