Organic Loading using Hydraulic Retention Time Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Organic Loading = Influent Substrate Concentration/MLVSS
V_L = S_o/X_a
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Organic Loading - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Organic Loading refers to the amount of organic matter (measured as BOD, COD, or TOC) entering a wastewater treatment system per unit time.
Influent Substrate Concentration - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Influent Substrate Concentration refers to the concentration of organic matter or nutrients in the raw wastewater entering a treatment plant.
MLVSS - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - MLVSS refers to the amount of active microbial biomass, which is crucial for the biological degradation of organic pollutants.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Influent Substrate Concentration: 25 Milligram per Liter --> 0.025 Kilogram per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
MLVSS: 2500 Milligram per Liter --> 2.5 Kilogram per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_L = S_o/X_a --> 0.025/2.5

Evaluating ... ...

V_L = 0.01

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.01 Kilogram per Cubic Meter -->10 Milligram per Liter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

10 Milligram per Liter <-- Organic Loading

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is hydraulic retention time?

The Hydraulic retention time (HRT) is a measure of the average length of time that a soluble compound remains in a constructed bioreactor.

How to Calculate Organic Loading using Hydraulic Retention Time?

Organic Loading using Hydraulic Retention Time calculator uses Organic Loading = Influent Substrate Concentration/MLVSS to calculate the Organic Loading, The Organic loading using hydraulic retention time is defined as the application of soluble and particulate organic matter. It is typically expressed on an area basis as pounds of BOD5 per unit area per unit time, such as pounds of BOD5 per square foot per day (lb/ft2/day). Organic Loading is denoted by V_L symbol.

How to calculate Organic Loading using Hydraulic Retention Time using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Organic Loading using Hydraulic Retention Time, enter Influent Substrate Concentration (S_o) & MLVSS (X_a) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Organic Loading using Hydraulic Retention Time calculation can be explained with given input values -> 10000 = 0.025/2.5.

FAQ

What is Organic Loading using Hydraulic Retention Time?

The Organic loading using hydraulic retention time is defined as the application of soluble and particulate organic matter. It is typically expressed on an area basis as pounds of BOD5 per unit area per unit time, such as pounds of BOD5 per square foot per day (lb/ft2/day) and is represented as V_L = S_o/X_a or Organic Loading = Influent Substrate Concentration/MLVSS. Influent Substrate Concentration refers to the concentration of organic matter or nutrients in the raw wastewater entering a treatment plant & MLVSS refers to the amount of active microbial biomass, which is crucial for the biological degradation of organic pollutants.
