A city is planning to install a new settling tank as an upgrade to their existing water treatment plant. Design a settling tank to remove 65% of the influent suspended solids from their design flow of 0.5 m² /s. A batch-settling test using a 2.0 m column and coagulated water from their existing plant yielded the following data: Percent removal as a function of time and depth Sampling time, min Depth, m 0.5 10 20 40 60 90 120 41 50 60 67 72 73 76 1.0 19 33 45 58 62 70 74

Q. Solve this seepage problem.
Gave wrong values earlier. These are the correct values A settling tank having a depth of 3.5 m and surface area of 1000 m2 is used to remove particles of size 0.01 mm and specific gravity of 2.6. Calculate the removal percentage of the tank for the discharge of 7000 m3/d. Take viscosity of water as 1.1x10-3 kg/m.s.
A rectangular settling basin has a depth of 3 m, a length of 40 m and a width of 6 m. The water treated in the basin has a flow rate of 500 L/s and contains 50 mg/L of type a particles, 100 mg/L of type b particles and 180 mg/L of type c particles (particle type letters refer to the particles listed in problem 1). What is the suspended solids concentration in the effluent from the settling basin? Determine the overall percent removal of suspended solids from the water achieved by the settling basin.
