Design Surface Loading Rate given Surface Area of Circular Settling Tank Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Surface Loading Rate = (Peak Discharge/Surface Area)
S_l = (Q_p/SA)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Surface Loading Rate - (Measured in Kilogram per Second Square Meter) - Surface Loading Rate is the volume of liquid applied per unit surface area of a treatment process, such as a clarifier.
Peak Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Peak Discharge is the maximum volume flow rate passing a particular location during an event.
Surface Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - Surface Area is the horizontal area available for sedimentation, impacting the tank's capacity to separate solids, typically measured in square meters (m²).

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Peak Discharge: 37.5 Million Liters per Day --> 0.434027777777778 Cubic Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Surface Area: 4 Square Meter --> 4 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

S_l = (Q_p/SA) --> (0.434027777777778/4)

Evaluating ... ...

S_l = 0.108506944444445

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.108506944444445 Kilogram per Second Square Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.108506944444445 ≈ 0.108507 Kilogram per Second Square Meter <-- Surface Loading Rate
