As a field engineer you are tasked to estimate the 25-year peak discharge for concrete parking lot that is 310 feet wide by 600 feet long using Rational formula. The longest flow path is 310 feet of sheet flow across the lot on a slope of 0.005 and 600 feet of shallow concentrated flow along the parking lot's length in a paved channel on a slope of 0.015. Use SCS procedures to determine the time of concentration using a 2-year, 24-hr rainfall of 2.4 inches. Use Figure below for the rainfall intensity in the rational equation.

A conventional Wastewater Treatment Plant receives an average daily wastewater flow of 38,000 m2/d. Two circular primary clarifiers, operating in parallel, will treat the flow. Assume that a peripheral effluent weir is used for each clarifier. Consider a detention time of 2 hours and water depth of 4 meters for each clarifier. Determine: a. The diameter (m) of each primary clarifier. b. The weir loading rate (m3/d . m) for each clarifier at average daily flow. c. The expected (not calculated) BODs and Suspended Solids removal efficiencies (%) at an average daily flow rate.
Two circular clarifiers operated in parallel service a single stage bio-tower system (plastic media) that receives municipal wastewater at an average flow (Qaverage) of 2000 m³/d, with BOD5 = 200 mg/L. The internal flow recirculation ratio is 2.4. The maximum overflow rate for the clarifiers is 1.8 m³/m²-hr. The design procedures require that the sizing of the clarifiers be based on "PEAK" flow which is twice the average flow (Qpeak = 2 × Qaverage), and media depth in the biotower is 3.0 m. Determine: (a) The overall BOD5 removal. (b) the surface area and the diameter of each clarifier. (k = 0.06 min¹; n = 0.5),
