Determine a suitable volume (dimensions) for coagulation basin for a flow of 1350 m3/hr, if t= 40 sec. (use circular tank). 1 A B I = &= % & [
ENVIROMENTAL ENGINEERING:
A water treatment plant was designed to a treat waste water at a flow rate of 1 m3/s. It consisted of 14 sand filters having surface area of 50 m2 each. Determine the loading rate of the plant (in m3/day.m2) if two filters are out of service.
given the following data of cut and fill, compute the free haul distance, overhaul distance, waste and borrow volume. having the values of:
Cost of overhaul: 3000 ID/station
Cost of free haul: 5000 ID/cu.m
Cost of borrow: 15000 ID/cu.m
Free haul distance (F.H.D.): 300m = 2 stations
Cost of waste=5000 ID/cu.m
economic overhaul distance=5 stations
limit of economic haul=8 stations
