Filter Length given Organic Loading Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Filter length = BOD loading to filter/(Organic loading*Area of filter)
L_f = W/(V_L*A)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Filter length - (Measured in Meter) - Filter length is the total length of filter required to effectively do the filtering process.
BOD loading to filter - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - BOD loading to filter is the total BOD present in the incoming sewage.
Organic loading - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Organic loading is defined as the application of soluble and particulate organic matter.
Area of filter - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of filter is considered area of plastic media trickling filter.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

BOD loading to filter: 3.5 Kilogram per Day --> 4.05092592592593E-05 Kilogram per Second (Check conversion here)
Organic loading: 1.23 Milligram per Liter --> 0.00123 Kilogram per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
Area of filter: 3 Square Meter --> 3 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L_f = W/(V_L*A) --> 4.05092592592593E-05/(0.00123*3)

Evaluating ... ...

L_f = 0.0109781190404497

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0109781190404497 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.0109781190404497 ≈ 0.010978 Meter <-- Filter length

Organic Loading to Trickling Filter

Go Organic loading = (BOD loading to filter/(Area of filter*Filter length))

Area of Filter given Organic Loading

Go Area of filter = BOD loading to filter/(Organic loading*Filter length)

Filter Length given Organic Loading

Go Filter length = BOD loading to filter/(Organic loading*Area of filter)

Filter Length given Organic Loading Formula

Filter length = BOD loading to filter/(Organic loading*Area of filter)
L_f = W/(V_L*A)

What is organic loading rate ?

Organic loading rate is defined as the application of soluble and particulate organic matter. It is typically expressed on an area basis as pounds of BOD5 per unit area per unit time, such as pounds of BOD5 per square foot per day (lb/ft2/day).
