Sedimentation and Compaction of Calcium Carbonate Aggregating Suspensions : Scaling Analysis of the Equilibrium Sédimentation et compaction de suspensions agrégées de carbonate de calcium : analyse en loi d'échelle de l'équilibre

Aggregating suspensions generally separate into a clear supernatant and a voluminous gelled sediment. The suspension remains homogeneous (i. e. a gel stable under gravity forms) only when the volume fraction of particles exceeds a given value Phi**. The present study is devoted to the determination...
