1. A settling column analysis is performed on a dilute suspension of particles from water. The suspension exhibited discrete particle settling characteristics. Data collected from samples taken at a depth of 1.5 meters are as follows: Time required to settle 1.5 m (min) 0.6 Fraction of Particles Settled 0.5 1.2 0.55 2.2 0.62 4.5 6 0.75 0.85 8.8 0.96 1. Plot the velocity distribution for the suspension 2. Find the overflow rate (Q/A) for a settling tank that will give at least 65% removal. 3. If the flowrate into the settling tank in part b. is 200 m3/hr, please give the dimensions of your settling tank?
