The population of a town is 200,000 and the average per capita demand is 260 LPCD. Design the six filter unit for the water works, supplying water to the town. The maximum demand may be taken as 1.5 times the average demand. Assume the detention period of 5 hours and 30 minutes. Also assume the flow rate of 900 litres per hour per m2. Take the width of the tank as 15m.
