T Settled sludge and filter wash water from water treatment are thickened in Problems 703 clarifier-thickeners prior to mechanical dewatering. The settled sludge volume is 1150 gpd with 1.0% solids, and the backwash is 9800 gpd containing 500 mg/l of suspended solids. Calculate the daily quantity of thickened sludge, assuming a concentration of 3.0% solids
