2. The average wastewater flow from a community of 20,000 is 125 gpcd. The 5 day, 20 deg C BOD is 250 mg/L. The suspended solids content is 300 mg/L. A final plant effluent of 50 mg/L of BOD is to be achieved through the use of two sets of identical settling tanks and trickling filters operating in parallel. The settling tanks are to be designed to a standard of 1000 gpd/^2. The trickling filters are to be 6^ deep and operated at an organic loading of 55 lbm/1000^3 d. There is no recirculalon. (1) What settling tank surface area is required? In ft^2 (2) What settling tank diameter is required? In ft (3) Estimate the BOD removal in the settling tanks? In percent % (4) What is the trickling filter diameter? In ft domeved Ward
A storm sewer is mixed into a small stream. The stream before the mixing point has a NaCi concentration of 25 mg/L. If the storm sewer has a Nacl concentration of 1.8 g/L and the storm sewer flowrate is 2.5 L/min, calculate for the concentration of the salt in the stream after the discharge point (mixing point). The stream has a flowrate of 2.6 cu.m/s. Assume a complete mixing of the storm sewer flow and the stream flow. Assume also that the salt is nonreactive and that the system is at steady state.
The influent suspended solids concentration to a primary settling (clarifier) tank is 300 mg/L. The average flow rate is 0.037 m3/s. If the suspended solids removal efficiency is 65 percent, how many kilograms of suspended solids are removed in the primary settling tank each day?

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),
