Q2: Two primary rectangular clarifiers are 2.3 m in depth. Single effluent weirs are located on the peripheries of the tanks. For a wastewater flow of 2500 m'/hr and overflow rate 1.5 m/hr, calculate: 1. Dimensions of the tanks (m). 2. Weir loading (m/m/d). Is the weir loading within the design criteria. Assume : length (L): width (W) = 3:1
