Question- A circular primary clarifier processes an average flow of 3000 m³/d of municipal wastewater. The overflow rate is 25 m³/d. Find the diameter of clarifier.
Example 5.2. Design a three barrel siphon for carrying sewage across a river stream. The total length of the siphon measured along the centre line including slopes is about 80 m. The invert levels at the inlet and the outlet ends of the sewer are 202.38 m and 201.80 m respectively. The average flow of the sewage is 180 litres per second, and the maximum and the minimum flows are 250% and 40% of the average respectively. Assume the minor losses to be about 6 cm.
Two circular clarifiers operated in parallel service a single stage bio-tower system (plastic media) that receives municipal wastewater at an average flow (Qaverage) of 2000 m³/d, with BOD5 = 200 mg/L. The internal flow recirculation ratio is 2.4. The maximum overflow rate for the clarifiers is 1.8 m³/m²-hr. The design procedures require that the sizing of the clarifiers be based on "PEAK" flow which is twice the average flow (Qpeak = 2 × Qaverage), and media depth in the biotower is 3.0 m. Determine: (a) The overall BOD5 removal. (b) the surface area and the diameter of each clarifier. (k = 0.06 min¹; n = 0.5),
An average wastewater flow of 20 000 m³ / day is to be treated by a clarifier with surface overflow rate (SOR) of 25 m/ m?.day and hydraulic retention time of 3 hours. Determine: Diameter of the clarifier (use two clarifiers) Depth of the clarifier.
(a) Design an oxidation pond for treating sewage from a hot climatic residential colony with 4000 persons, contributing sewage @ 180 lped. The 5-day BOD of sewage is 350 mg/L. Assume organic loading = 300 kg/ha/day Length to breadth ratio = 2:1 Effective depth = 1.2 m Average velocity of sewage in pipe = 1 m/s Daily flow of sewage to oxidation pond for 8 hours only Diameter of outlet pipe = 1.5 times that of the inlet pipe P
Problem: 1. Design a facultative pond to treat (13500)gpm of sewage having (13500/20)mg/L of BOD. The average summer and winter temperature is 43oC and 13oC, respectively. Convert the same pond into aerated lagoon, if the concentration of influent BOD reaches to (13500)mg/L. 2. Determine the diameter of a trickling filter for a wastewater flowing at the rate of (13500)m3/day. The influent BOD (So) concentration for the wastewater is (13500 * 10)mg/L, whereas desirable effluent BOD should be as per NEQS.

Q/ 2: A city discharges 115000 m3/d of wastewater into a stream whose minimum rate of flow is 8.5 m3/s. The velocity of the stream is about 3.2Km/hr, the temperature of the wastewater is 20 oC and that of the stream is 15 oC. The BOD5 at 20 oC of the wastewater is 200mg/l and that of the stream is 1mg/l. The wastewater contains no dissolved oxygen but the stream is 90% saturated upstream of the discharge. At 20 oC k1 is estimated to be 0.3 day-1, and k2 is 0.7 day-1. Determine the critical oxygen deficit and its location, also estimate BOD5 at 20 oC of the sample taken at the critical point. Use temperature coefficient of 1.135 for k1 and 1.025 for k2, also plot the dissolved oxygen sag curve
A wastewater treatment plant serves a city with a total population of 50000. The total service area for the treatment plant is 100 km2. The wastewater flow is 300 L/cap.d. During the wet weather conditions, the expected infiltration/inflow for the city is 3800 L/Ha.d. Estimate the peak flow for this treatment plant (m3/d).
