This study calculated coefficients for the model elaborated by Hasan Ali San in 1989 based on the percentage of flocculated particles removed by three coagulants commonly used for water purification. The coagulants used were type A aluminum sulfate, type B aluminum sulfate and ferric chloride. An experiment was designed to study water with initial turbidity between 25 and 30 Nephelometric Turbidity Units (NTU). The experiment consisted of filling a sedimentation column with water and colloid particles which were agitated rapidly and then slowly with compressed air. This allowed the percentage of particles removed from the remaining turbidity to be determined at different times and different depths by measuring sedimentation of the flocculated particles. Once percentages of material removed had been calculated, an isoconcentration graph was elaborated and multiple linear regression was used to determine the coefficients of the model proposed by San.
El objeto de esta investigación es determinar los coeficientes del modelo de San para calcular el porcentaje de remoción de las partículas floculentas, al utilizar tres de los coagulantes más comúnmente utilizados en la potabilización del agua. Para ello se realizaron pruebas de laboratorio que comprenden el estudio de un agua problema, la cual presenta una turbiedad inicial en un rango comprendido entre 25 y 30 UNT. Los coagulantes utilizados para el desarrollo de la prueba fueron: sulfato de aluminio tipo A, sulfato de aluminio tipo B y cloruro férrico. El experimento consiste en llenar la torre de sedimentación con las partículas floculentas generadas después de una agitación con aire comprimido, de tal manera que se genere la mezcla rápida y lenta; lo que permite que posteriormente mediante el proceso de sedimentación de las partículas floculentas, se determinen a diferentes tiempos y diferentes rangos de profundidad, el porcentaje de remoción de las partículas a partir de la turbiedad remanente. Con los porcentajes de remoción calculados se elabora una gráfica de isoconcentración y se realiza una regresión lineal múltiple para determinar los coeficientes del modelo propuesto por San en 1989.
