Q= 0.012m3 S= 0.04 m^3/p/yr; t=3 days; T=3 years; f=1


Population(N)= 100×5 =500 persons
Volume of tank= NQt +NSTf
=500×0.012×3 + 500×0.04×3×1
=78 m^3
Assuming a depth of 3.5m
78
Surface area of tank = 3.5 =22.2 m^2

Length to width ratio = 2:1


Length(L) = 2× width(W)
L=2W
W×2W=22.29
2W 2 =22.29
√ 22.29 =3.34 m
W=
√2
L=2×3.34
=6.68m
Dimensions of tank;
Length=6.68m
Width=3.34m
Depth=3.5m
Design for two compartments
Assume ratio of the length of first to second compartment be 2:1.
2
Length of first compartment= 3 ×6.68=4.45m

length of second compartment=(1/3) x 6.68 = 2.23m


Dimensions of first compartment;
Length= 4.45m
Width= 3.34m
Depth= 3.5m
Dimensions of second compartment;
Length=2.23m
Width=3.34m
Depth=3.5m
