Abstract: A stochastic model is employed to account for the dynamic behaviour of floc breakage. More specifically, the evolution of the particle‐size distribution over time is presented. The model is compared to experimental data obtained by exposing kaolin—iron(III) flocs to hydrodynamic stress generated by a turbine impeller. The agreement between the model and experimental data appears to be satisfactory.
