Quasistationary Sedimentation with Adsorption

Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

Models for the sedimentation of particles suspended in solution are proposed that take into account mass transfer between the liquid fraction of the solution and the particles. The structure and velocity of the concentration wave describing the upward extension of the zone with a high concentration of the solid phase are studied using a kinematic model with the Froude number as a small parameter. It is established that the concentration-wave velocity becomes lower if the sorption parameter is set equal to zero, i. e., if the sorption properties of the suspended particles are ignored.
