What is Plastic Media Trickling Filter ?
A Trickling Filter is a type of wastewater treatment system. It consists of a fixed bed of rocks, coke, gravel, slag, polyurethane foam, sphagnum peat moss, ceramic, or plastic media over which sewage or other wastewater flows downward and causes a layer of microbial slime (biofilm) to grow, covering the bed of media.
How to Calculate Depth of Actual Filter using Treatability Constant?
Depth of Actual Filter using Treatability Constant calculator uses Depth of Actual Filter = Depth of Reference Filter*(Treatability Constant at 30°C and 20ft Depth/Treatability Constant at 30°C and 25ft Depth)^(1/Empirical Constant) to calculate the Depth of Actual Filter, The Depth of Actual Filter using Treatability Constant calculates the vertical distance from the top surface to the bottom of the filter media, impacting filtration efficiency, typically measured in meters (m), when we have prior information of treatability constant and reference filter depth. Depth of Actual Filter is denoted by D2 symbol.
How to calculate Depth of Actual Filter using Treatability Constant using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Depth of Actual Filter using Treatability Constant, enter Depth of Reference Filter (D1), Treatability Constant at 30°C and 20ft Depth (K30/20), Treatability Constant at 30°C and 25ft Depth (K30/25) & Empirical Constant (a) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Depth of Actual Filter using Treatability Constant calculation can be explained with given input values -> 6.874029 = 6.1*(28.62/26.8)^(1/0.3).
