Document Summary
Tianyu hou, 26995194 feb. 8, 9:00 10:50. In order to avoid turbidity, engineers use coagulation and flocculation to separate the. Turbidity, one of the most important factor during water treatment, greatly affects water quality. It is the measurement of relative clarity of a liquid. Normally, turbidity is expressed by the amount of light which is scattered through material in the water when the light is shined through the sample. The higher amount of scattered light, the higher the turbidity. When high turbidity happens in the area of water, high concentrations of particles within the water will affect the penetration of light, wild-life habitat quality and so on. When turbidity occurs during water distribution, the quality of water will be greatly contaminated and the pipe systems could also be potentially influenced by particles in water. suspended particles part from the water.
