Fractal Mechanisms in Coagulation/Flocculation Processes in Environmental Systems

Introduction to the Study of Environmental Fractals

“…An example of how fractal geometry can be used to better understand complex environmental processes is briefly described here and more thoroughly detailed in Chapters 4 and 5 [34,35]. A number of computer simulations and statistical models have been proposed to explain growth, polymerization and aggregation processes that lead to the formation of fractal structures that closely resemble those found in nature.…”
