Question: Question 1 . ( 5 0 points ) Using the following information, and assuming 3 0 percent BOD removal in primary clarification, a packing depth

Question 1.(50 points)
Using the following information, and assuming 30 percent BOD removal in primary
clarification, a packing depth (D) of 6.1m, and a value for n of 0.50, determine the following
design parameters for a trickling filter treatment system at 15C.
Sizing of the clarifiers and tower trickling filters is based on two units each.
Q=10,000m3d
Influent BOD to the primary clarifier =270mgL
Effluent BOD from the trickling filter =20mgL
Influent TSS =240mgL
Overflow rate (OR) in the primary clarifier =40m3m2?d
k at 15C=0.157(Ls)0.5m2
1.1) Diameter (m) of each primary clarifier (10 points)
1.2) Reactor volume (m3) and diameter (m) of each trickling filter (20 points)
