A wastewater treatment plant that treats wastewater to secondary treatment standards uses a primary sedimentation process followed by conventional activated sludge process composed of covered aeration tanks and secondary clarifiers. You are asked to calculate the different operation parameters to make sure that the system is operated within normal process ranges listed in the reference tables below. Table 5-20 Typical design information for primary sedimentation tanks U.S. customary units Item Unit Range Typical Primary sedimentation tanks followed by secondary treatment...

Penn State’s wastewater treatment plant handles 10 MGD. The influent to the primary clarifier has 400 mg/L solids. The primary clarifier does a great job of removing solids, taking out 27%. The sludge flows at a rate of 0.01 MGD. a. What is the solids concentration of the primary clarifiers sludge? B. What total mass of solids (in kg/year) heads to the landfill from the primary clarifier?

A water treatment plant is processing water at a flow rate of 1.5 m/s using three parallel treatment trains. The detention times for the rapid mix tank, flocculation basin, and rectangular sedimentation basin are 10 sec, 30 min and 60 min, respectively. The velocity gradients for the rapid mix and flocculation tanks are 900 s and 60:40:20 s1, respectively. The viscosity of water is 0.001 Pa-s. (a) Determine the size and power requirements for rapid mix tanks. (b) Determine the...

A drinking water treatment plant is designed with three sedimentation basins in parallel. Each basin is designed with an overflow rate of 1,200 gpd/ft2 (gallons per day per square foot). (“In parallel” means that the flow is split evenly between the basins as shown below.) A. If the plant flow is 20 mgd (million gallons per day), find the plan area of each basin in square feet. B. Calculate the dimensions of the basins (length and width in feet) if...
