The Sedimentation Handbook

The Sedimentation Handbook is a comprehensive guide that explains how particles settle in liquids, particularly in water and wastewater treatment. It covers the science behind sedimentation, factors influencing particle settling rates, and engineering practices to design effective clarifiers and sedimentation tanks. The handbook provides technical data, equations, and design principles to optimize separation processes, ensuring clear water and efficient removal of solids. It's used by engineers and professionals to improve treatment plant performance and ensure environmental standards are met.
