Abstract
The studies reported in this thesis are exploratory. Most important among them appear to be the following: (1) determination of the factors controlling floc destruction; (2) description of the dynamics of particle interaction in a moving viscous fluid; (3) elaboration of the mathematical model to include flocculation of non-spherical particles, as well as the formation of spherical and non-spherical agglomerations with or without included water; and (4) definition of the kinetics of floc nucleation and of color or turbidity uptake.
