1) Introduction
2) Settling Types
3) Settling Velocity
4) Design Calculation
5) Analysis
Depends on :
i) Velocity of flow
2) Flocculant particles
v=Q (Eq. 1)
Ac
Where,
V = water velocity (m/s)
Q = water flow (m3/s)
Ac = cross surface area (m2)
- Vo = Q = H
As t
Where
Q = flow rate
As = surface area
H = depth of water
t = detention time
VS
18 W
h = Vs t
Type 1
v) Occurs during :
Type 3 or Zone
i) Lime-softening sedimentation
- Purpose :
1) Tank Volume
2) Detention Time
6) Particle Settling
7) Overflow rate
Method :
iii. Record :
a) Initial concentration of the suspended solid, express as Co
b) Withdrawn sample at every sample ports, at selected time
intervals, Ct
iv. Calculate :
% R = Co Ct
Co
