The sedimentation behaviour of particulate slurries in laboratory scale batch settling experiments is important to the prediction of full-scale gravity thickening behaviour. However, the material throughput predicted by modelling of thickener performance from material properties derived from conventional batch experiments has been shown to be up to 100 times less than observed (at full-scale). Such...
