عرض المزيدFrom the eqn. (iii) it can be stated that the quantity of water passing per hour per unit area of settling tank is known as "surface overflow rate" (S.O.R.). For plain rectangular sedimentation tanks, the overflow rate is about 500-750 lit/hr/m 2 and when coagulants are used, it is about 1000 to 1250 lits/hr/m 2 of plan area. 3.
عرض المزيدCalculate the required surface area of the sedimentation tank based on the hydraulic loading rate (HLR) and desired detention time. The HLR is typically expressed in m 3 /m 2 /day and represents the flow rate per unit area of the tank. It is determined by dividing the flow rate (Q) by the surface area (A) of the tank.
عرض المزيدA sedimentation tank, also called a settling tank or clarifier, is used to settle suspended particles in water. This is achieved as the wastewater or water usually passes slowly at variable speeds through the tank. A layer of sludge settles at the bottom of the tank and is periodically removed.
