Fundamentals of sedimentation
Learning objectives/experiments
• determination and comparison of the
settling velocities of solids in suspen-
sions dependent on the solid density
and concentration and the liquid dens-
ity and viscosity
• influence of coagulants on the settling
velocity
Specification
[1] experiments in the fundamentals of
sedimentation
[2] 5 transparent tanks with scale for
comparison of the settling velocities
of solids in various suspensions
[3] tanks removable for filling, mixing
and cleaning
[4] tanks backlit by fluorescent tubes to
aid observation
[5] 3 measuring cups for preparation of
suspensions
[6] pycnometer to determine the dens-
ity of the liquids and solids
[7] stopwatch to record the sedimenta-
tion time
[8] recommended accessories: balance,
coagulant
