Abstract

Abstract The rate of sedimentation of precipitated calcium carbonate in water was measured as a function of the solid concentration and the shape and angle of inclination of the container. It was found that an experimentally determined coefficient had to be included in the settling equation proposed by Nakamura to make it fit the data.
