Water purification and industrial and municipal liquid waste treatment both depend on mixing for process effectiveness. For example, mixing determines the rate of particle aggregation, and thus the size of solid aggregates, which in turn is an important parameter in downstream separation processes including sedimentation, re-suspension and filtration. Mixing is also important in advanced oxidation methods. This session will concentrate on advancements in the mixing aspects of these processes and will also include new work on industrial mass transfer.
