Select an in-line blender for an alum coagulant given that the jar test results appears to be adsorption/destabilization G values in the range of 3,000 to 5,000 per second. The design flow rate is 425 m³/h, and the design water temperature is 17 deg C. Mixer aspect ratio = 1.5, Dynamic Viscosity = 1.519 x 10- 3 Pa. s and detention times are of the order of 0.5 s

Select an in-line blender for an alum coagulant given that the jar test results appears to be adsorption/destabilization G values in the range of 3,000 to 5,000 per second. The design flow rate is 425 m³/h, and the design water temperature is 17 deg C. Mixer aspect ratio = 1.5, Dynamic Viscosity = 1.519 x 10- 3 Pa. s and detention times are of the order of 0.5 s are recommended for adsorption/destabilization reactions. As a first trial, select model AZ-8 with a Chamber diameter of 46cm and a length of 70cm. The motor power is given as 2250 watts.
Estimate the value of G in per second.

The water power, given that it is 85% the motor power watts

Calculate the detention time in seconds

Calculate the volume of the reaction chamber in cubic centimetres
