You are the engineer asked to design a rapid sand filtration system for a small water treatment plant.
It has the following characteristics:
Hydraulic loading rate = 6 m/h
Total volumetric flow rate of the plant = 3 MGD
Effective filtration rate = 5.8 m/h
Production efficiency = 97%
Complete (filtration, rinsing, and backwashing) filter cycle duration = 48 h
What is the area of your square filtration system? What are the surface dimensions of the filter?
What volume of water is needed for backwashing plus rinsing the filter in each rinsing cycle?
