In the present experimental study: the sedimentation process using an inclined wall of container at different angles with vertical has been investigated. If the walls of the vessel are vertical and cross-session of the vessel does not wary with depth then the shape of the vessel does not affect the sedimentation rate. However if the walls of the vessel face downwards as in the case of the inclined wall, The effect on the sedimentation rate can be considerable. This effect is known as the boycott effect, which describes the phenomena of an enhanced rate of sedimentation it the settling wall....
