Design six units of slow sand filter beds for a population of 50,000 with Average daily demand of 150 liters/(capita-day). Rate of filtration is 150 liters/ (m2-hr) and length of each filter unit is twice of its width. Design the system on maximum discharge. Also assume that one unit is out of service.
