Record 1 2002-04-02

English

Subject field(s)
  • Scientific Measurements and Analyses
  • Dust Removal
DEF

The percentages of each fraction into which a granular or powder sample is classified, with respect to particle size, by number or weight.

OBS

The French term "granulométrie" and its synonym "granularité" are most accurately rendered in English by the term "particle-size distribution." In some contexts however it would be more usual in English to speak of varying or uniform "grain size" or "particle size."

OBS

... in-depth clogging is perfectly possible provided that... the filter bed is of uniform grain size throughout its depth...

Key term(s)
  • particle size distribution

French

Domaine(s)
  • Mesures et analyse (Sciences)
  • Dépoussiérage
DEF

Composition ou distribution granulométrique d'un ensemble de grains.

OBS

[...] un encrassement en profondeur est parfaitement possible, à condition que le lit filtrant soit d'une taille effective et d'un coefficient d'homogénéité sensiblement identiques en surface et au fond, c'est-à-dire que le lit filtrant soit d'une granulométrie homogène sur toute sa hauteur, non seulement lors de son chargement initial mais après chaque lavage.

Record 2 1981-01-26

English

Subject field(s)
  • Water Treatment (Water Supply)
  • Wastewater Treatment
CONT

... with a positive pressure throughout the filter bed at all times, and with in-depth clogging, the Aquazur V filter is capable of treating difficult water, particularly water rich in phytoplankton and water saturated with dissolved gas without the occurrence of deaeration within the sand or of artificial clogging for the gases occluded in the water.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Traitement des eaux
  • Traitement des eaux usées
CONT

[...] avec une pression toujours positive dans le lit filtrant et un encrassement en profondeur, le filtre Aquazur V est capable de traiter des eaux difficiles et en particulier des eaux riches en phytoplancton ou des eaux saturées en gaz dissous sans qu'il se produise de dégazage au sein du sable ni de colmatage artificiel pour les gaz occlus dans l'eau.

  • Wastewater Treatment
CONT

... in-depth clogging is perfectly possible provided that the effective grain size and homogeneity-coefficient of the sand is more or less the same on the surface and at the bottom; i. e. if the filter bed is of uniform grain size throughout its depth, not only when initially filled but after each wash cycle.
