Select an in-line blender for an alum coagulant given that the jar test results appears to be adsorption/destabilization G values in the range of 3,000 to 5,000 per second. The design flow rate is 425 m³/h, and the design water temperature is 17 deg C. Mixer aspect ratio = 1.5, Dynamic Viscosity = 1.519 x 10- 3 Pa. s and detention times are of the order of 0.5 s are recommended for adsorption/destabilization reactions. As a first trial, select model AZ-8 with a Chamber diameter of 46cm and a length of 70cm. The motor power is given as 2250 watts.

- 12.60 The aeration tank for a completely mixed aeration process is being sized for a design waste- water flow of 7500 m³/d. The influent BOD is 130 mg/l with a soluble BOD of 90 mg/l. The design effluent BOD is 20 mg/l with a soluble BOD of 7.0 mg/l. Recommended design para- meters are a sludge age of 10 d and volatile MLSS of 1400 mg/l. Selection of these values takes stants from a bench-scale treatability study are Y into account the anticipated variations in wastewater flows and strengths.
