Reducing the Magnesium Content from Seawater to Improve Tailing Flocculation: Description by Population Balance Models
Experimental assays and mathematical models, through population balance models (PBM), were used to characterize the particle aggregation of mining tailings flocculated in seawater. Three systems were considered for preparation of the slurries: i) Seawater at natural pH (pH 7.4), ii) seawater at pH 1...
