A municipal corporation is required to 3 treat 1000 m³/day of water. It is found that an overflow rate of 20 in/day will produce a satisfactory removal of the discrete suspended particles at a depth of 3 m. The diameter (in meters, rounded to the nearest integer) of a circular settling tank designed for the removal of these particles would be.
