Actual Solid Loading Rate of Circular Settling Tanks Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Solid Loading Rate = Solid Processed/Surface Area
AQ = Ps/SA
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Solid Loading Rate - (Measured in Kilogram per Second Square Meter) - Solid Loading Rate is the rate at which solid is loaded in a given surface area as mass flow rate.
Solid Processed - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - Solid processed is defined in terms of mass flow rate.
Surface Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Surface Area of a three-dimensional shape is the sum of all of the surface areas of each of the sides.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Solid Processed: 3.01 Kilogram per Day --> 3.4837962962963E-05 Kilogram per Second (Check conversion here)
Surface Area: 18 Square Meter --> 18 Square Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
AQ = Ps/SA --> 3.4837962962963E-05/18
Evaluating ... ...
AQ = 1.93544238683128E-06
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
1.93544238683128E-06 Kilogram per Second Square Meter -->0.167222222222222 kilogram per Day Square Meter (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
0.167222222222222 0.167222 kilogram per Day Square Meter <-- Solid Loading Rate
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

15 Design of a Circular Settling Tank Calculators

Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids in Aeration Tank using Maximum Solids
Go MLSS = (Maximum Solids in Aeriation Tank/((Peak Discharge+Return Activated Sludge)*8.34))
Design Surface Loading Rate given Surface Area of Circular Settling Tank
Go Surface Loading Rate = (Peak Discharge/Surface Area)
Average Daily Load using Peak Discharge in Circular Settling Tanks
Go Average Daily Load = (Peak Discharge/Peaking factor)
Peaking Factor using Peak Discharge in Circular Settling Tanks
Go Peaking factor = (Peak Discharge/Average Daily Load)
Peak Discharge given Surface Area of Circular Settling Tank
Go Peak Discharge = (Surface Area*Surface Loading Rate)
Surface Area of Circular Settling Tank
Go Surface Area = (Peak Discharge/Surface Loading Rate)
Solids Processed given Actual Solid Loading Rate
Go Solid Processed = (Solid Loading Rate*Surface Area)
Assumed Solid Loading Rate of Circular Settling Tanks
Go Solid Loading Rate = (Maximum Solids/Surface Area)
Peak Discharge in Circular Settling Tanks
Go Peak Discharge = Average Daily Load*Peaking factor
Total Settling Tank Surface Area given Actual Solid Loading Rate
Go Surface Area = Solid Processed/Solid Loading Rate
Actual Solid Loading Rate of Circular Settling Tanks
Go Solid Loading Rate = Solid Processed/Surface Area
Maximum Solids given Solid Loading Rate
Go Maximum Solids = Surface Area*Solid Loading Rate
Surface Area given Solid Loading Rate
Go Surface Area = Maximum Solids/Solid Loading Rate
Influent Flow Rate given Return Activated Sludge Flow Rate
Go Average Daily Influent Flow Rate = (Return Activated Sludge/1.25)
Return Activated Sludge Flow Rate
Go Return Activated Sludge = 1.25*Average Daily Influent Flow Rate

Actual Solid Loading Rate of Circular Settling Tanks Formula
