Question
Q1:) A circular coagulation basin has a diameter of 2.5 m and it's depth equal to 1.60 m. If
the following data are available: Gt=27000, t-30 s, μ-1.003× 10³ kg/m.s,alum dosage=50
mg/l, determine:
a) The required mixing power in unit of (kW).
b) The daily quantity of alum added in unit of (kg/d).
Q2:) The flow described in (Q1) above is to be flocculated in a basin having four
flocculators with transverse paddle units. The basin may be a maximum of 6 m wide and 4
m deep to connect to the settling basin. Determine:
(1) Basin dimensions:
(2) power requirements. μ= 1.002× 10³ kg/m.s
The best Gt value for the system has been found to be 5 x 104, and the G value is 40 s¹.
