The objective of this study was to investigate the performance characteristics of an inline mixing and coagulation system for water treatment based on the process intensification concept. Three-stage inline mixing and coagulation system was composed of the reservoirs of source wastewater, the fixed quantity injection pumps of coagulants, the mixing and coagulation tubes, a sedimentation tank and a control panel. In the equal dosage of coagulant and coagulant aids, the turbidity removal with increasing the dosage of coagulant aids was about 3 times higher than that with increasing the dosage of coagulant. In the condition of the equal mixing and coagulation time, the turbidity removal of inline mixing and coagulation system was about 4.6 times higher than that of mechanical type.

The objective of this paper was to investigate the mixing characteristics of an three-stage inline coagulant mixing system experimentally. Wastewater samples of pH 8.5 and initial turbidity 1,000NTU were taken from a site of tunneling work. At the constant dosage, 0.36mL/L, of polymer as coagulant aids, the coagulation efficiency with the dosage of PAC as coagulant was about 4${\sim}$6% at 10 minutes after sampling. In the case of 2 different velocity gradient conditions, the efficiency of turbidity removal was increased about 6.5${\sim}$8% with increasing the dosage of coagulant while, the efficiency was increased about 20${\sim}$21.5% with increasing the dosage of coagulant aids. The efficiency of turbidity removal with the settling time after sampling was about 90% after 1 minute, and the efficiency was about 95% after 5 minutes.
