(b) Explain treatability study of activated sludge process. 04
(c) Using Rankin?s method and assuming suitable design criteria, design a high
rate trickling filter to treat 10 MLD flow of domestic waste water having
settled BOD of 200 mg/l.
Design Criteria & Assumptions:

(c) Using the Velz equation , determine the filter depth of a low rate trickling
filter , if settled ultimate BOD is 100 mg/L and desired BOD5 is 20 mg/L.
(Let?s assume BOD5 = 68% of Ultimate BOD, Removable effluent BOD =
95% and k=0.18) find C, Cnr, CD and D.

/sec. The settling basin at
the plant has an effective settling volume that is 20 m long, 3 m tall and 6
m wide. Will particles that have a settling velocity of 0.004 m/sec be
completely removed? If not, what percent of the particles will be removed?
How big would the basin need to be to remove 100% of the particles that
have a settling velocity of 0.004 m/sec?
