Evaluation of Phosphatic Clay Disposal and Reclamation Methods. Volume 7: Engineering Properties of Flocculated Phosphatic Clays

02-042-044Final

Abstract

The index properties, settling and consolidation behavior, and shear strength characteristics of three phosphatic clays flocculated with a com- mercially available flocculant (NALCO 7877- a polyacrylamide flocculant) are presented and compared with properties of unflocculated clays.
