A rectangular shaped sedimentation tank is to be built for a design flow of 600 m3/h. If the detention time, overflow rate and weir loading rate are 3 hours, 50 m3/m2.d, 100 m3/m.d, calculate the length, width and depth of the tank and the weir length. (assume length to width ratio of 3:1) (8 points)

You have been retained to design a wastewater treatment plant using a conventional activated sludge process for a town of 40,000 people. The industrial flow contribution to the sewer system is 300,000 gallons per day. Effluent discharge standards require effluent BOD5 and total suspended solids concentration of <10 mg/l. Assume the following design criteria are applicable: Domestic sewage flow = 100 gal/cap/day (including I/I) BOD loading = 0.18 lbs/cap/day TSS loading = 0.20 lbs/cap/day BOD removal in primary = 33%...
