A municipal wastewater containing both domestic and food-processing wastewaters was tested to determine the kinetic constants using a laboratory apparatus similar to the bench-scale unit shown in Figure 12.42. The volume of the aeration chamber was 10 1, and the wastewater feed was established at a constant rate of 30.0 1/d to provide an 8.0-hr aeration period for all of the test runs. A measured volume of sludge was wasted once a day from the tank. Determine T, k(h /c, and Ks from the following laboratory data using the procedure in Example 12.14:

Q(1/d)

So(mg/l)

QW(1/d)

X(mg/I)

Se(mg/I)

Xe(mg/I)
