Question: Design a complete - mix activated sludge process for only Cremoval to treat an domestic wastewater with one of the following characteristics at peak month

Design a complete-mix activated sludge process for only Cremoval to treat an domestic wastewater with one of the following characteristics at peak month conditions;
\table[[Item,Unit,Value],[Flow,m3d,15000],[BOD,mgl,200],[sBOD,,100],[COD,mgl,400],[sCOD,,180],[TSS,mgl,200],[nbVSS,mgl,100],[TKN,mgl,35],[Total phosphorus,mgl,8],[\table[[Min. Wastewater],[Temperature]],C,15]]
Y=0.45gVSSgCOD
kd=0.10gVSSgVSS.d
m=2.5gVSSgVSS.d
Ks=20mgCODL
fd=0.10gVSSgVSS
bCOD=1.6(BOD)
Aeration tank MLSS =4000mgL
Clarifier effluent TSS =15mgL
SVI=120mlg
a) Find minimum volume required for the aeration tank,
b) Choose total WAS pump capacity ) if excess sludge is wasted from RAS line
c) Choose total RAS pump capacity (m3hr)
d) Find out the O2 requirement (kgd)
Effluent will satisfy the EU discharge requirements for discharge from urban wastewater treatment plants to sensitive areas, which are subjected to eutrophication.
Please note that total effluent COD will include nbsCOD and bsCOD. Effluent substrate concentration(S) formula derived from mass balance around whole system include only biodegradable COD remaining after treatment.
