Kinetics of Shear Coagulation of Oppositely Charged Particles : A Trajectory Analysis
Transport properties of aqueous colloidal dispersions are controlled by the coagulation of particles in the dispersions. In order to study the coagulation kinetics and stability of colloid in a shear flow, which are practically important, trajectory analyses with electric double layer force have been used. So far, however, this analysis has not been applied to the heterocoagulation between oppositely charged particles in a shear flow. In the present study, the rate of shear coagulation of oppositely charged particle was calculated using the trajectory analysis. The calculated results indicate that the rate of heterocoagulation increases with decreasing ionic strength and increasing the magnitude of surface potential. The increase of the rate is considered to be due to the increases of the thickness of diffuse double layer and the magnitude of attractive double layer force
Strength of natural soil flocs
To obtain the strength of flocs against breakup is crucial for controlling flocculation in water treatment and predicting transport of colloidal particles in aqueous environments. Recently, the author reported a method to obtain floc strength from a simple experiment of floc breakup subjected to a laminar converging flow. In this study, this method was applied to natural soil flocs. The flocs were formed by coagulation with 0.5 M NaCl (pH 5.4–5.5, pH 6.6) solutions, 0.1 M CaCl2 (pH 6.4–6.9) solutions, or acidified distilled water with dilute HCl (pH 5.6). Obtained floc strengths were 0.3, 0.7 and 4 nN for Na-, Ca-, and H-coagulated flocs, respectively. Also, floc strength did not change with floc size. These values of floc strengths were 1–3 orders smaller than those of flocs formed with polymer flocculants and/or precipitated ferric or aluminum coagulants
