Volatile Solids produced given Volume of Methane Gas produced Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Volatile Solids Produced = (1/1.42)*(BOD In-BOD Out-(Volume of Methane/5.62))
P_x = (1/1.42)*(BOD_in-BOD_out-(V_CH4/5.62))
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Volatile Solids Produced - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - Volatile Solids Produced refers to the organic fraction of the total solids present in the sludge.
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.
Volume of Methane - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Volume of Methane refers to the amount of methane gas produced, stored, or utilized, typically measured in cubic meters (m³) or cubic feet (ft³).

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

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)
Volume of Methane: 95.54 Cubic Meter per Day --> 0.00110578703703704 Cubic Meter per Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_x = (1/1.42)*(BOD_in-BOD_out-(V_CH4/5.62)) --> (1/1.42)*(0.00189814814814815-5.6712962962963E-05-(0.00110578703703704/5.62))

Evaluating ... ...

P_x = 0.00115822248304643

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.00115822248304643 Kilogram per Second -->100.070422535211 Kilogram per Day (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

100.070422535211 ≈ 100.0704 Kilogram per Day <-- Volatile Solids Produced

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
