Estimate the screen requirement (i.e. gross width of screen, number of bars, length of screen) for a plant treating a peak flow of 60 MLD of sewage. Assume that velocity through the screens at peak flow is 0.8 m/s and water depth is 1m. Assume rectangular steel bars in the screen (at 60\deg to the horizontal) with 1 cm width and placed at 5 cm clear spacing. Also calculate the head loss for clean screens.
