A complete-mix activated sludge process (CMAS) is to be designed to treat 5.0 million gallons per day (MGD) of primary effluent having a BOD5 of 180 mg/L. The NPDES permit requires that the effluent BOD5 and TSS concentrations should be 20 mg/L or less on an annual average basis. The following biokinetic coefficients obtained at 20∘C will be used in designing the process: Y = […]
