Our study proposes a new mathematical model for predicting the gravitational settling velocity of sediment particles, a measure to evaluate water clarity, to provide information to environmental engineers, first responders dealing with environmental emergencies or farmers, for the most rapid and efficient management responses. New and simplified simulation program are developed to the study sedimentation process. The mathematical model proposes a first-order differential equation who is solved by a numerical method algorithm. The proposed formula has the highest degree of predictive accuracy when compared with experimental data.
