VII. Design Of Aeration Tank

Assuming that negligible BOD is removed in screening and grit chamber (since it mainly removes inorganic solids). T
sewage coming to aeration tank Y0= 295 mg/L
BOD Left in the effluent= 𝑌𝐸 = 20
BOD removed in activated plant = 275
Minimum efficiency required in the activated plant = 0.932203389830509
Volume of aeration tank can be designed by assuming a suitable values of MLSS and ‘𝜃𝑐 ‘ ( or F/M ratio ) = 3000 mg
i.e ( Between 3000 – 3500 mg/L)
F/M ratio = Assume B/w 0.18 - 0.10)

The adopted tank size is thus OK
Hence, adopt an aeration tank having an overall 26m x 9m x (3.5+0.6)m.
Overall depth, width 0.6m of free board. The outlet weir shall be adjustable type. The effluent from the aeration ta
