The relative dimensions of the length and height were chosen to match the design of full-scale dissolved air flotation tanks (Edzwald, 2011). The residence times and hydraulic rates at these dimensions with a flowrate range of 200 – 400 mL min −1 are displayed in the Supporting information (Table S1). A narrow width of 1 cm was required …

The difference between a large batch bench-scale dissolved air flotation system (LB-DAF) in comparison to a 1-2 L volume DAF jar test apparatus has indicated that the LB-DAF system simulated the full-scale DAF turbidity removal much better than regular bench-scale tests [20]. Computer simulations can also be f of great help.

The use of biosurfactants increased the efficiency of the small scale DAF prototype and allowed the estimation of kinetic parameters, velocity constant (k) and reaction order (n). The determined kinetic parameters confirmed a first-order kinetics for dissolved air flotation, without and with the use of biosurfactant.

What Can Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) Testing Do for You? With bench-scale DAF testing, we can size a DAF clarifier/thickener based on the slurry that will be fed to the DAF tank. Testing allows us to measure physical attributes of the interaction of the solid and liquid portions of a slurry with the dissolved air.
