(30 points) A completely mixed activated sludge system comprised of an aerated reactor and a secondary clarifier with sludge return is going to treat 15,000 m/d of industrial wastewater. The primary effluent going to the reactor has a BODs of 1,100 mg/L that must be reduced to 150 mg/L prior to discharge to a municipal sewer. The pilot study was conducted and generated the following results: 3. Mean cell residence time- 5 day, MLSS concentration in the reactor 7.200 mg/L...
A wastewater flow of 18,000 m3/day is to be treated in a completely mixed activated sludge system at a concentration of 3000 mg/L MLSS (mixed liquor suspended solids).
