Sewage Treatment Plant

This document provides a summary of the design of a sewage treatment plant. It includes calculations for: - Estimating the design population and sewage flow rate - Sizing receiving and grit chambers, screens, and skimming tanks - Calculating volumes for primary sedimentation, aeration, and secondary sedimentation tanks - Ensuring design criteria are met for aeration period, volumetric loading, and solids loading The summary outlines the key design considerations and calculations for each major treatment unit to appropriately size the sewage treatment plant based on estimated population and flow rates.

Note:
Use 0 with 10 mm width and 50 mm thick

Assume Average Detention Period, DP
Aerated Volume, AV
AV = DP x DFC = 0.035 x 180 =
