Retention Time given Volume of Flocculation Basin Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Retention Time = (Volume of Tank*Time in Min Per Day)/Flow Rate of Secondary Effluent
T = (V*T_m/d)/Q_e
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Retention Time - (Measured in Second) - Retention Time refers to the duration a substance remains within a particular system or environment before being removed or degraded.
Volume of Tank - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Tank refers to the total capacity or size of a tank used for storing liquids, such as water, chemicals, or wastewater.
Time in Min Per Day - Time in Min Per Day is the ratio of time in min to time in day.
Flow Rate of Secondary Effluent - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Flow Rate of Secondary Effluent refers to the volume of treated wastewater that exits the secondary treatment process in a wastewater treatment plant.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Volume of Tank: 9 Cubic Meter --> 9 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Time in Min Per Day: 0.3 --> No Conversion Required
Flow Rate of Secondary Effluent: 0.54 Cubic Meter per Second --> 0.54 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T = (V*T_m/d)/Q_e --> (9*0.3)/0.54

Evaluating ... ...

T = 5

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

5 Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

5 Second <-- Retention Time

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Retention Time?

Retention time is the time that a solute spends in a column, or it can be defined as the time spent in the stationary and mobile phases. The longer retention time depends on the interaction of the stationary phase. The stronger the interaction, the more will be the interaction time.

How to Calculate Retention Time given Volume of Flocculation Basin?

Retention Time given Volume of Flocculation Basin calculator uses Retention Time = (Volume of Tank*Time in Min Per Day)/Flow Rate of Secondary Effluent to calculate the Retention Time, The Retention Time given Volume of Flocculation Basin is defined as the time spent in the stationary and mobile phases. Retention Time is denoted by T symbol.

How to calculate Retention Time given Volume of Flocculation Basin using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Retention Time given Volume of Flocculation Basin, enter Volume of Tank (V), Time in Min Per Day (T_m/d) & Flow Rate of Secondary Effluent (Q_e) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Retention Time given Volume of Flocculation Basin calculation can be explained with given input values -> 5.4 = (9*0.3)/0.54.
