CONT

En particulier, l'augmentation de la masse de contact entraîne un accroissement de la probabilité des chocs au sein du réacteur, d'où une floculation plus efficace. Les appareils à contact de boue, créant ou apportant dans la zone de floculation une masse de boue plus importante, utilisent ce principe.
