Previous application of colloid filtration theory to roughing filtration has not considered a reliable method for determining a representative attachment factor for a polydisperse suspension (of constant particle density). Establishment of such a method would broaden the application of trajectory modelling in roughing filtration, and progress the development of a comprehensive database of attachment factors and surface charge potentials for various particle and fluid types. This study establishes a methodology for the application of colloid filtration theory to roughing filtration and incorporates recent advancements in theoretical single-collector efficiency.A polydisperse kaolinite clay suspension was passed through a series of four gravel upflow roughing filters and removal efficiencies were calculated. Both the classical and Tufenkji and Elimelech's more recent correlation equations were used to calculate theoretical single-collector efficiencies and associated attachment factors for three different filter media sizes, flow rates, and suspended solids concentrations (0.137±0.023). The use of Tufenkji and Elimelech's modified correlation equation resulted in reduced variability in the estimation of theoretical single-collector efficiencies.
