Abstract
Effects of aeration on Coefficient of oxygen utilization rate of floated muddy sediments in the estuarine environment with aeration, and quiescent settling analysis of the muddy sediments were examined experimentally.In quiescent settling analysis of aerated SS of muddy sediments, over-all SS removal ratio and turbidityremoval ratio could obtain 96%, 88% each during 1 hour of settling time. Also, overflow rate was 60m3/m2·day. under this situation, scour velocity in SS of muddysediment was about 7cm/s in the case of D=0.0065m.
