12.50 Determine the activated-sludge aeration volume required to treat 2.64 mgd with a BOD of 120 mg/l based on the criteria of a maximum BOD loading of 40 lb/1000 ft³/day and a minimum aeration period of 5.0 hr. Assuming an operating F/M of 0.20 lb BOD/day per lb of MLSS, calculate the MLSS to be maintained in the aeration tank. Estimate the operat- ing sludge age (mean cell residence time), assuming an effluent suspended solids of 30 mg/l and the daily amount of waste-sludge solids from Figure 13.1. Determine the diame- ter and side-water depth of two identical final clarifiers of the type shown in Figure 10.12 for this activated-sludge system.
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.
