- 5. 3/31/2016 5 What isCoagulation? Coagulation is the destabilization of colloids by addition of chemicals that neutralize the negative charges by rapid mixing. The chemicals are known as coagulants, usually higher valence cationic salts (Al3+, Fe3+ etc.) Coagulation is essentially a chemical process -- - - --- -- - ---- -- - ---- -- - ----

- 12. 3/31/2016 12 Jar Tests Determinationof optimum pH The jar test – a laboratory procedure to determine the optimum pH and the optimum coagulant dose A jar test simulates the coagulation and flocculation processes Fill the jars with raw water sample (500 or 1000 mL) – usually 6 jars Adjust pH of the jars while mixing using H2SO4 or NaOH/lime (pH: 5.0; 5.5; 6.0; 6.5; 7.0; 7.5) Add same dose of the selected coagulant (alum or iron) to each jar (Coagulant dose: 5 or 10 mg/L) Jar Test
- 13. 3/31/2016 13 Jar Testset-up Rapid mix each jar at 100 to 150 rpm for 1 minute. The rapid mix helps to disperse the coagulant throughout each container Reduce the stirring speed to 25 to 30 rpm and continue mixing for 15 to 20 mins This slower mixing speed helps promote floc formation by enhancing particle collisions, which lead to larger flocs Turn off the mixers and allow flocs to settle for 30 to 45 mins Measure the final residual turbidity in each jar Plot residual turbidity against pH Jar Tests – determining optimum pH

The rapid mix helps to disperse the coagulant throughout each container Reduce the stirring speed to 25 to 30 rpm for 15 to 20 mins
