An investigation of the performance of flocculators in the city of Dimbokro, Cote d’Ivoire was conducted. The correspondence between theoretical and experimental hydrodynamic and design parameters of the performance of flocculators with propeller mixers was reviewed according to Camp’s criterion. Recommendations are provided on the operation of flocculators with the goal of intensifying the coagulation process and energy conservation. https://www.biotech-asia.org/vol11no3/analysis-of-the-flocculation-process-in-purification-of-environmental-waters-during-dry-and-wet-seasons-in-the-west-african-countries/
