Check the alkalinity for the BPR wastewater plant being designed for Pittsburgh. Use the data from Problems 16-46 and 16-47. Assume an alkalinity of 100 g/m 3 is needed to maintain a pH of about 7.

Problems 16-47

In continuing the design of the BPR process for Pittsburgh’s new wastewater treatment plant, determine the volume of the anoxic tank. Use the data provided in Problem 16-46 .

Problem 16-46

Your firm has been asked to do a preliminary study of the feasibility of a new A²/O^™ BPR wastewater treatment plant for Pittsburgh. Begin the design of the complete-mix BOD removal and nitrification stage. As a first step determine the SRT and volume of tank required for nitrification using the following design data:
