1. Compute the overflow rate required to remove the particle on the trajectory shown
using Eq. 10-17:

PROBLEM 10-4
Problem Statement - For the particle settling data shown in Example 10-3, plot the
removal efficiency as a function of overflow rate for overflow rates ranging from 0.5
to 4 m/h. Determine the overflow rate required to achieve 75 percent removal. If
the depth of the basin is 4 m, what is the corresponding detention time?
Solution
1. Plot the removal efficiency for a variety of overflow rates.
a. At a given overflow rate, the fraction of particles removed is Vs/OR for each
average settling velocity. When the fraction removed greater than 1, a value
of 1 is used. Then the total fraction removed at this overflow rate is
n n

∑
i=1 OR
∑N .
i=1
i (See the following table which is an example at overflow rate
of 2 m3/m2∙h).
b. Repeat this on overflow rates from 0.5 to 4 m3/m2∙h to obtain the results in the
table below.
2. Determine the required detention time and overflow rate for a removal efficiency of
75 percent. Assuming depth of the sedimentation basin does not change (h = 4 m),
the detention time is h/OR.
