Average Daily Influent Flow Rate using Recirculation Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Average Daily Influent Flow Rate = Return Activated Sludge/Recirculation Ratio
Q_a = RAS/α
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Average Daily Influent Flow Rate - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Average Daily Influent Flow Rate is the total discharge that comes in the reactor.
Return Activated Sludge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Return Activated Sludge is the portion of settled biomass that is recycled from the secondary clarifier back to the aeration tank in a wastewater treatment process.
Recirculation Ratio - Recirculation Ratio refers to the ratio of the RAS pumping rate to influent flow rate.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Return Activated Sludge: 10 Cubic Meter per Day --> 0.000115740740740741 Cubic Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Recirculation Ratio: 8.3 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q_a = RAS/α --> 0.000115740740740741/8.3

Evaluating ... ...

Q_a = 1.39446675591254E-05

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.39446675591254E-05 Cubic Meter per Second -->1.20481927710844 Cubic Meter per Day (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

1.20481927710844 ≈ 1.204819 Cubic Meter per Day <-- Average Daily Influent Flow Rate
