Endogenous Respiration Rate Constant - (Measured in 1 Per Second) - Endogenous Respiration Rate Constant is used for designing a complete-mix activated-sludge system.
Maximum Yield Coefficient - Maximum Yield Coefficient Y represents the maximum mg of cells produced per mg organic matter removed.
Sewage Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Sewage discharge is the flow rate of sewage when it is being discharged into the water body.
Influent BOD - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Influent BOD is the total amount of BOD which is present in the incoming sewage.
Effluent BOD - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Effluent BOD is the amount of dissolved oxygen needed by aerobic biological organisms to break down organic material present in a water sample at a certain temperature over a specific time period.
Sludge Age - (Measured in Second) - Sludge Age is the average time for which the particle of suspended solids remains in aeration.
Volume of Tank - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Tank is defined as the capacity of flocculation and mixing tank.
MLSS - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - MLSS is the sum of volatile suspended solids (organics) and fixed suspended solids (inorganics).

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Maximum Yield Coefficient: 0.5 --> No Conversion Required
Sewage Discharge: 10 Cubic Meter per Second --> 10 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Influent BOD: 0.48 Milligram per Liter --> 0.00048 Kilogram per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
Effluent BOD: 0.4 Milligram per Liter --> 0.0004 Kilogram per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
Sludge Age: 5 Day --> 432000 Second (Check conversion here)
Volume of Tank: 9 Cubic Meter --> 9 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
MLSS: 1200 Milligram per Liter --> 1.2 Kilogram per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

K^e = (((Y*Q_s*(Q_i-Q_o)*θ_c)/(V*X))-1)/θ_c --> (((0.5*10*(0.00048-0.0004)*432000)/(9*1.2))-1)/432000

Evaluating ... ...

K^e = 3.47222222222222E-05

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3.47222222222222E-05 1 Per Second -->3 1 Per Day (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

3 1 Per Day <-- Endogenous Respiration Rate Constant
