Abstract:Conventional flocculation and sedimentation processes are suitable for handling raw water of high turbidity., and dissolved air flotation (DAF) has an edge in treating algal-rich raw water. To address the influence of seasonal variation of the quality of raw water to the treatment process, a novel integrated flotation and sedimentation unit (IFSU) is proposed. The main advantage of the IFSU is that it can run flotation or sedimentation processes in a single unit. In these systems, flotation is induced when algal-rich or low-turbidity water is present, while sedimentation is induced when treating high-turbidity water. The IFSU has been successfully applied to the rehabilitation project of Zhuhai Sanzao drinking water treatment plant (DWTP) with treatment volume of about 2 ×104 m3·d?1. Results show that the average algal and turbidity removal rate are up to 96.9% and 94.1%, respectively when running the air flotation process,. The turbidity removal rate is about 98.5% when running the sedimentation process. Key words:flotation/ sedimentation/ integrated flotation and sedimentation unit(IFSU)/ algal removal/ turbidity removal.
