process descriptionPRINcIPLES OF OPERATION
• Diluted slurries, once flocculated, settle more readily than undiluted slurries.• A slurry settling on an inclined surface will collect on and slide down the surface, consolidating the solids and releasing water.• Increased bed depths increase the compaction of thickened material at the bottom of the bed, maximizing the underflow solids concentration.
