  • The bimodal flocculation of cohesive sediments in water environments describes the aggregation and breakage process developing a bimodal floc size distribution with dense flocculi and floppy flocs. A two class population balance equation (TCPBE) was tested for simulating the bimodal flocculation by a model-data fitting analysis with two sets of experimental data (low and high turbulent flows) from 1-D flocculation-settling column tests. In contrast to the Single-Class PBE (SCPBE), the TCPBE could simulate interactions between flocculi and flocs and the flocculation mechanism by differential settling in a low turbulent flow. Also, the TCPBE could perform the same quality of simulation as the elaborate Multi-Class PBE (MCPBE), with a small number of floc size classes and differential equations. Thus, the TCPBE was proven to be the simplest model that is capable of simulating the bimodal flocculation of cohesive sediments in water environments and water, wastewater treatment systems.

  • 특정분포에 대한 P-P plot과 Q-Q plot의 특징을 분석하고 두 가지 그래프 사이의 관계를 비교해 보았다. NTV의 본질적인 특징을 알아보고 각 특정분포에 대한 NTV plot의 특징을 분석했다. 전형적인 bimodal 분포가 나타날 때 P-P 혹은 Q-Q plot은 뚜렷한 break-point를 갖는다는 것을 알아보고, 단지 skewed된 분포나 skewed된 것처럼 보이는 bimodal 분포 사이에서 발생하는 판단의 어려움에 대하여 여러 plot고찰해 보았다.
