Figure 3. Aggregate size distribution of non-reduced control (NC), bioreduced smectite (BS) suspension (variable incubation time from 3 to 48 h) and aerobically inoculated smectite (AIS) suspensions using a Micromeritics Sedigaph. The average aggregate size was measured at 50% cumulative mass % and settling velocity was calculated using Stokes law.
