Volume of Wasted Sludge Per Day given MLSS Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Volume of Wasted Sludge per day = (Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids*Volume of Tank)/(Concentration of Solids given MLSS*Sludge Age)
Q_w = (X^'*V)/(X_Em*θ_c)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Volume of Wasted Sludge per day - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Volume of Wasted Sludge per day is the amount of sludge that is removed from a wastewater treatment process within a 24-hour period.
Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids is the concentration of suspended solids in the mixed liquor of an aeration tank during the activated sludge process.
Volume of Tank - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Tank is defined as the capacity of flocculation and mixing tank.
Concentration of Solids given MLSS - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Concentration of Solids given MLSS is the density of solid particles present in the sludge that is returned from the secondary settling tanks to the aeration tank, considering MLSS.
Sludge Age - (Measured in Second) - Sludge Age is the average time for which the particle of suspended solids remains in aeration.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids: 1200 Milligram per Liter --> 1.2 Kilogram per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
Volume of Tank: 9 Cubic Meter --> 9 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Concentration of Solids given MLSS: 0.0026 Milligram per Liter --> 2.6E-06 Kilogram per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
Sludge Age: 5 Day --> 432000 Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q_w = (X^'*V)/(X_Em*θ_c) --> (1.2*9)/(2.6E-06*432000)

Evaluating ... ...

Q_w = 9.61538461538461

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

9.61538461538461 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

9.61538461538461 ≈ 9.615385 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Volume of Wasted Sludge per day

What is Sludge Wasting?

Wasting removes solids buildup in the activated-sludge system, formed when solids amounts in the aeration-tank influent are greater than the solids amounts in the secondary-clarifier effluent. If sludge is not wasted, the secondary clarifier eventually fills up with solids.

How to Calculate Volume of Wasted Sludge Per Day given MLSS?
