2. The average wastewater flow from a community of 20,000 is 125 gpcd. The 5 day, 20 deg C BOD is 250 mg/L. The suspended solids content is 300 mg/L. A final plant effluent of 50 mg/L of BOD is to be achieved through the use of two sets of identical settling tanks and trickling filters operating in parallel. The settling tanks are to be designed to a standard of 1000 gpd/^2. The lbm/1000^3.d. Ibm/1000.^3.d. trickling filters are to be 6^ deep and operated at an organic loading of 55 There is no recirculalon. (1) What settling tank surface area is required? In ft^2 (A) 2500 ft^2 (B) 3000 ft^2 (C) 3500 ft^2 (D) 4500 ft^2 (2) What settling tank diameter is uired? ft (A) 40 ft (B) 50 ft (C) 65 ft (D) 80 ft (3) Estimate the BOD removal in the settling tanks? In percent % (A) 15% (B) 30% (C) 45% (D) 60% (4) What is the trickling filter diameter? In ft (A) 65 ft (B) 75 ft (C) 85 ft (D) 95 ft
