Average Amount

The amount of snow cover in the Lake Biwa catchment area has changed significantly from 1.9 × 1012kg in 1974 to 0.3 × 1012kg in 1979. The amount of snow cover was less in the warmer winter and when the amount of snow cover was less than 1012 kg, the average amount of snow cover in recent years, the lowest dissolved-oxygen concentration in the deep layer rapidly decreases. Climatic warming will significantly decrease the amount of snow cover in Lake Biwa catchment area and the dissolved-oxygen concentration in the deep layer of the lake, which may further enhance eutrophication of the lake.

Maximum Rise

Combined chemical flocculation and autoflotation were examined using pilot scale process with chitosan and alum as flocculants. Positive correlation was observed between dissolved oxygen concentration and rise rate. Rise rate depended entirely on the autoflotation parameters: mixing intensity, retention time, and flocculant contact time. Also, rise rate was influenced by the type of flocculant used. The maximum rise rate with alum was observed to be 70 m/h, whereas that with chitosan was approximately 420 m/h. The efficiency of the flocculation-autoflotation process was superior to that of the flocculation-sedimentation process.
