Abstract

The mechanisms that govern flocculation and coagulation processes are of manifold importance to many different technologies. These mechanisms are discussed in order to facilitate a fuller understanding of the processes involved. The origin of the London-Van der Waals forces which cause particles to flocculate and coagulate are discussed. Dispersion and selective flocculation tests are also carried out on complex ultra fine lead zinc mixture.
