Transcribed Image Text:
1. A laboratory settling analysis has been performed on a suspension exhibiting flocculent (type 2)
sedimentation with the results given in the following table. The column had a diameter of 14 cm
and a total depth of 2.4 m, with sampling ports spaced every 0.6 m. The initial concentration of
suspended solids 480 mg/L.

a) Prepare the following graphs (list data used in preparing the graphs in tables):
Percentage SS removed v/s time
Isoremoval curves
(iii)
Total % removal v/s detention time
(iv)
Surface overflow rate v/s detention time
b) Size a primary clarifier for 50% removal based on the data in (a): The design flow rate is 4000
m³/d. What will the underflow rate from the clarifier be if solids are compacted to a 1.5%
concentration? Use safety factor of 1.5 for the detention time and surface overflow rate of the
clarifier, respectively.
c) If the volumetric flow rate doubles but the concentration and settling characteristics of the
suspended solids do not change, what is the expected total removal? What is the expected removal
if the flow rate is increased by 10%?
