The important factors that strongly influence the particle size distributions measured by the laser diffraction method are the optical parameters of the suspension (refractive index and absorption coefficient). Knowledge of the values of these parameters is necessary for Mie theory. Mie theory is applied for conversion of the intensity of light recorded on detectors into particle size distribution (PSD) of tested material. Both wastewater and activated sludge are mixtures of a variety of elements (mineral or organic, including living organisms). In practice, it is not possible to define clearly the values of the optical parameters, as the composition of the suspension changes over time. The aim of the study was to estimate the impact of assumed values of the optical parameters on particle size distributions obtained. The PSDs of suspensions sampled in different stages of wastewater treatment are the most reproducible when the following optical parameters are defined: absorption coefficients - 1.0 and the refractive index - 1.52.

Czynnikami, które w istotny sposób wpływają na rozkłady granulometryczne wyznaczane za pomocą dyfrakcji laserowej, są parametry optyczne mierzonej zawiesiny (współczynnik załamania światła oraz współczynnik absorpcji). Znajomość wartości tych parametrów jest niezbędna przy zastosowaniu teorii Mie. Teoria Mie jest wykorzystywana do przeliczenia intensywności światła zmierzonego na detektorach na rozkład granulometryczny (PSD) badanego materiału. Zarówno ścieki, jak i osad czynny są mieszaninami bardzo różnych składników (mineralnych i organicznych, w tym żywych organizmów). W praktyce nie ma możliwości określenia rzeczywistych wartości parametrów optycznych mieszanin, tym bardziej, że ich skład zmienia się w czasie. Celem niniejszej pracy było określenie wpływu założonych wartości parametrów optycznych na uzyskiwane rozkłady granulometryczne. Rozkłady granulometryczne zawiesin pobranych na różnych etapach oczyszczania ścieków są najbardziej powtarzalne dla następujących wartości współczynników optycznych: współczynnika absorpcji - 1,0 i współczynnika załamania światła - 1,52.
