- the packed bed is moved through the treatment region by gravity.
- the finer particles have a P80 diameter that is smaller than that of the coarser particles, the finer particles reduce a percentage of void spaces that would otherwise be present between the coarser particles.
- the finer particles may be significantly smaller than coarser particles and may partially fill spaces between adjacent coarser
- Figure 2a shows a photographic image of a packed bed of particles 302 that are directed through a conduit.
