Activated Sludge Reactor Calculations Given Value Unit

The document provides calculations for an activated sludge reactor treating wastewater with an influent BOD5 of 0.13 kg/m3, including determining a reactor volume of 892.1568 m3, a recirculation ratio of 0.4233, and an organic loading of 0.7577 kg BOD5/m3-day. Secondary clarifier calculations are also shown for 3 tanks each with a volume of 14521.7333 ft3, a depth of 11.1408 ft, and a width of 18.0518 ft to handle the total flow of 1955206.175 gal/day with an overflow rate of 500 gal
