Capacity of Chlorinator at Peak Flow Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Chlorine Required = Dosage*Average Flow*8.34*Peaking Factor
Cl₂ = D*Q_a*8.34*f
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Chlorine Required - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - Chlorine Required means pounds of chlorine required per day.
Dosage - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Dosage used to obtain coliform reduction refers to the amount of disinfectant added to the wastewater to achieve the desired level of pathogen reduction or disinfection efficacy.
Average Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Average Flow often refers to the average velocity of a fluid over a certain period of time or through a specific area.
Peaking Factor - Peaking Factor is the ratio of the maximum flow to the average daily flow in a water system.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Dosage: 0.004626 Milligram per Liter --> 4.626E-06 Kilogram per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
Average Flow: 2.5 Cubic Meter per Second --> 2.5 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Peaking Factor: 0.9999 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Cl₂ = D*Q_a*8.34*f --> 4.626E-06*2.5*8.34*0.9999

Evaluating ... ...

Cl₂ = 9.644245479E-05

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

9.644245479E-05 Kilogram per Second -->8.332628093856 Kilogram per Day (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

8.332628093856 ≈ 8.332628 Kilogram per Day <-- Chlorine Required
