Commissioning of new dissolved air flotation (DAF) installations and optimization of already existing installations takes at least one year of laboratory and pilot plant experiments. Such studies are labor-intensive. Using mathematical modeling, it is possible to minimize time and costs. For such purposes, mathematical model of the DAF process was developed based on the law of momentum (impulse) behavior and Navier-Stokes equations. The model allows to describe the kinetic relations between the water stream, air bubbles and aggregates arising as a result of coagulation of surface water pollution. The model takes into account the exchange of impulses between different phases as a result of laminar and turbulent flow. The developed model was used to prepare a simulation computer program. In order to check the feasibility of the model, laboratory tests were carried out under static conditions. Comparison of the results of laboratory tests with the results of computer simulation showed its suitability for analyzing the effectiveness of removing solid phase from water by means of dissolved air flotation. Proposed model was also compared with models proposed by different authors.
