In wastewater treatment this process is triggered by polyacrylamide, and it is prevented in cement production by lignosulfonates.
A model for the rate of this process's reverse is given by Martyanov and Muller. In wastewater treatment this process is triggered by polyacrylamide, and it is prevented in cement production by lignosulfonates. This process is triggered by sufficiently low values of a quantity that is calculated rigorously by the formulation of O'Brien and Hunter or the earlier work of Dukhin and Semenikhin. Classical kinetic models for this process are provided by von Smoluchowki, and most models of this process neglect surface conductivity and assume a thin double layer. This process occurs at zeta potentials of less than roughly plus or minus five. For 10 points, name this process, which is, along with coalescence and creaming, one of three forms of emulsion instability and which consists of the accumulation into flakes of the particles in a colloid.
