Weight of Oxygen Required to Destroy VSS Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Weight of Oxygen = (Volume of Suspended Solid*2.3*Weight of Initial Oxygen)/Volatile Suspended Solid Weight
W_O2 = (VSS*2.3*W_i)/VSS_w
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Weight of Oxygen - (Measured in Kilogram) - The Weight of Oxygen refers to the amount of oxygen required to oxidize certain organic or inorganic substances in a given system, usually water.
Volume of Suspended Solid - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - The Volume of Suspended Solid refers to the amount of solid particles that are suspended in a liquid medium, often water.
Weight of Initial Oxygen - (Measured in Kilogram) - The Weight of Initial Oxygen refers to the amount of oxygen dissolved in water at the beginning of a particular process or reaction.
Volatile Suspended Solid Weight - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - The Volatile Suspended Solid Weight refers to the portion of suspended solids in water or wastewater that can be volatilized at a specific high temperature.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Volume of Suspended Solid: 3 Kilogram per Day --> 3.47222222222222E-05 Kilogram per Second (Check conversion here)
Weight of Initial Oxygen: 3.84 Kilogram --> 3.84 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Volatile Suspended Solid Weight: 5.3 Kilogram per Day --> 6.13425925925926E-05 Kilogram per Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_O2 = (VSS*2.3*W_i)/VSS_w --> (3.47222222222222E-05*2.3*3.84)/6.13425925925926E-05

Evaluating ... ...

W_O2 = 4.99924528301886

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4.99924528301886 Kilogram --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

4.99924528301886 ≈ 4.999245 Kilogram <-- Weight of Oxygen

What is VSS Method ?

The volatile suspended solids (VSS) method is a rough measure of solids concentration in samples of activated sludge derived by measuring volatile solids. Because bacteria are mostly organic, the VSS test is a better indicator of organic-solids concentrations and therefore, the amount of bacteria in a sample.
