Abstract: | The collision efficiency approach to flocculation is analyzed on the basis of a model describing the probability of aggregation by polymer bridging. The model allows for the effect of the randomness of distribution of polymer over particles as well as the effect of simultaneous coagulation and weak flocculation. It is argued that the collision efficiency approach is applicable to a rather limited range of experimental systems and provides a qualitative understanding rather than a quantitative theory of the relationship between flocculation and adsorption. |
