You are evaluating an existing primary wastewater sedimentation tank with an area of 2,000 ft². (a) Determine the average daily flow in MGD) that can be assigned to this tank. At the assigned capacity, the tank must meet all applicable design criteria as follow: Peaking factor = 2.2 Overflow rate=900 gpd/ft2 in average flow and 2,200 gpd/ft2 in peak flow (b) On a particular day, the flow was 12MCD What fraction of particles with a settling velocity of 8x10 ft/s were removed
