Grit particle characterization: Study of the settleability

Abstract Grit chambers are meant to reduce the impact of inorganic particles on equipment and processes downstream. Despite their important role, characterization and modelling studies of these process units are scarce, leading to a lack of knowledge and suboptimal operation. Thus, this study presents the first dynamic model, based on mass balances and particle settling velocity distributions, for use in a water resource recovery facility (WRRF) simulator for design and optimization of grit removal units.
