Effect of flocculant dosage on the settling properties and underflow concentration of thickener for flocculated tailing suspensions

Flocculation is important in the thickening process to improve the underflow concentration in thickeners for tailing suspensions. Traditional zone settling velocity (ZSV) functions ignore the effect of flocculant dosage on the ZSV and the thickening behavior of thickeners. To investigate the effect...
