Description
The process of removing turbidity, sediment and Slurry circulation and harmful
matters is termed at clarification. There are Slurry Circulation and Solid Contact
type. Normally, this constitutes the first stop in pretreatment system. It is
a system with 3 kinds of processes namely Mixing, Coagulation and Sedimentation
within a single basin.
Raw water fine and dispersed particles enters the system where it is mixed
rapidly with the chemicals. This mixing coagulates finely divided or colloidal
suspended matter into large particles that will settle rapidly. Accelerate setting
can be accomplished particles for further agglomeration
Slurry circulation type can produce consistence water quality (suspended solids
and organic coloring matter) regardless of the drastic change in raw water quality.
As for solid contact type, it can remove chemically harmful matters of turbidities
by rapid coagulation.
