28. An EA STP treats sewage with a BOD of 250 mg/L, from a residential park with a population equivalent of 10 000. The STP has two aeration tanks and two clarifiers. Determine the size of the aeration tanks and the clarifiers. Assume appropriate values for F/M ratio and MLSS. Check the HRT and the volumetric loading for the aeration tanks. Use the following criteria to design the clarifiers: Surface overflow rate = 12.5 m³/m².day at average flow Depth of clarifier = 4.0 m HRT = minimum of 2.0 hours at peak flow
