Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Volumetric Loading = (BOD per Day/Volumetric Flow Rate)
V_l = (BOD_day/V)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Volumetric Loading - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Volumetric Loading is referred as the amount of wastewater or sludge applied to a treatment unit per unit volume of the unit per unit time.
BOD per Day - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - BOD per Day is defined as biological oxygen demand in terms of mass flow rate.
Volumetric Flow Rate - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Volumetric Flow Rate is referred as measure of the volume of fluid that flows through a given surface per unit time.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

BOD per Day: 10 Kilogram per Day --> 0.000115740740740741 Kilogram per Second (Check conversion here)
Volumetric Flow Rate: 5 Cubic Meter per Second --> 5 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_l = (BOD_day/V) --> (0.000115740740740741/5)

Evaluating ... ...

V_l = 2.31481481481482E-05

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.31481481481482E-05 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2.31481481481482E-05 ≈ 2.3E-5 Kilogram per Cubic Meter <-- Volumetric Loading

What is Volumetric Load?

Volumetric Load is used to design wastewater treatment units. It can be calculated by multiplying the BOD (mg/L) of the raw water by the influent flow Q (m3/day) and then dividing this volumetric load by the pond volume.

How to Calculate Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester?

Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester calculator uses Volumetric Loading = (BOD per Day/Volumetric Flow Rate) to calculate the Volumetric Loading, The Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester formula is defined as the amount of organic matter (typically measured in terms of volatile solids, VS) added to the digester per unit volume of the digester per unit time. It is usually expressed in terms of kilograms of volatile solids per cubic meter per day (kg VS/m³/day). Volumetric Loading is denoted by V_l symbol.

How to calculate Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester, enter BOD per Day (BOD_day) & Volumetric Flow Rate (V) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester calculation can be explained with given input values -> 2.3E-5 = (0.000115740740740741/5).

FAQ

What is Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester?

The Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester formula is defined as the amount of organic matter (typically measured in terms of volatile solids, VS) added to the digester per unit volume of the digester per unit time. It is usually expressed in terms of kilograms of volatile solids per cubic meter per day (kg VS/m³/day) and is represented as V_l = (BOD_day/V) or Volumetric Loading = (BOD per Day/Volumetric Flow Rate). BOD per Day is defined as biological oxygen demand in terms of mass flow rate & Volumetric Flow Rate is referred as measure of the volume of fluid that flows through a given surface per unit time.

How to calculate Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester?

The Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester formula is defined as the amount of organic matter (typically measured in terms of volatile solids, VS) added to the digester per unit volume of the digester per unit time. It is usually expressed in terms of kilograms of volatile solids per cubic meter per day (kg VS/m³/day) is calculated using Volumetric Loading = (BOD per Day/Volumetric Flow Rate).
