Mean Cell Residence Time given Quantity of Volatile Solids

Formula

θ c = (\frac{1}{k d}) - (Y \cdot \frac{BOD in - BOD out}{P x \cdot k d})

Example

6.9538 d = (\frac{1}{0.05 d⁻¹}) - (0.41 \cdot \frac{164 kg/d - 4.9 kg/d}{100 kg/d \cdot 0.05 d⁻¹})

Mean Cell Residence Time given Quantity of Volatile Solids Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Mean Cell Residence Time = (1/Endogenous Coefficient)-(Yield Coefficient*(BOD In-BOD Out)/(Volatile Solids Produced*Endogenous Coefficient))
θ_c = (1/k_d)-(Y*(BOD_in-BOD_out)/(P_x*k_d))
This formula uses 6 Variables

Variables Used

Mean Cell Residence Time - (Measured in Second) - Mean Cell Residence Time refers to a measure of the extent to which organic matter in sludge has been decomposed or stabilized through treatment processes.
Endogenous Coefficient - (Measured in 1 Per Second) - Endogenous Coefficient is referred as modeling the behavior of microorganisms, particularly in wastewater treatment processes.
Yield Coefficient - Yield Coefficient is referred as the ratio of biomass (microbial cells) produced to the amount of substrate (organic material) consumed during the digestion process.
BOD In - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - BOD In in anaerobic digester design lies in its role as an indicator of the organic load present in the feedstock. High BOD levels suggest a greater concentration of organic matter.
BOD Out - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - BOD Out referred as the amount of dissolved oxygen exits anaerobic digester.
Volatile Solids Produced - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - Volatile Solids Produced refers to the organic fraction of the total solids present in the sludge.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Endogenous Coefficient: 0.05 1 Per Day --> 5.78703703703704E-07 1 Per Second (Check conversion here)
Yield Coefficient: 0.41 --> No Conversion Required
BOD In: 164 Kilogram per Day --> 0.00189814814814815 Kilogram per Second (Check conversion here)
BOD Out: 4.9 Kilogram per Day --> 5.6712962962963E-05 Kilogram per Second (Check conversion here)
Volatile Solids Produced: 100 Kilogram per Day --> 0.00115740740740741 Kilogram per Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

θ_c = (1/k_d)-(Y*(BOD_in-BOD_out)/(P_x*k_d)) --> (1/5.78703703703704E-07)-(0.41*(0.00189814814814815-5.6712962962963E-05)/(0.00115740740740741*5.78703703703704E-07))

Evaluating ... ...

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

600808.320000001 Second -->6.95380000000001 Day (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

6.95380000000001 ≈ 6.9538 Day <-- Mean Cell Residence Time
