Design of Clarifier

MOC : R C C Open Air


Flow rate : 68 m3/hr
Surface water flow rate considered : 40 m3/ m2/day [surface loading range 30 - 40 m3/ m2/day]
Surface area of Clarifier : 68 × = 40.8 m2
π
Equation for Dia. of Clarifier Dcf : { – (3.0) } = 43.2
Dcf : 8.0 m
Now, Assuming depth (SWD) : 3.0 m
Volume of clarifier : 150.72 m3
Detention time : .
= 2.2 hrs [Detention time range 2 – 2.5 hrs] Hence O K
Diameter of Clarifier provide : 8.0 m
Height : 3.0 m SWD + 0.4 Free space = 3.4 m Overall Ht.
Length of weir : π × Dcf = 3.14 × 8.0 = 25.12 m
Weir loading : ×
.
= 64.96 ≈ 65 m3/day/m < 300 m3/day/m
Overall height of clarifier : 3.75 m
Overall height from Top point of Sludge Chanel : 4.5 m
So, Slop Ratio : 1 : 1.2
Outlet Launder
Flow through Launder : 68 m3/hr = 0.019 m3/sec
Since flow in launder will be from both the halves
Flow in Lauder AV (being circular in nature) : 0.019/2 = 0.0095 m3/sec
Q=AxV
Where, Q = Flow in m3/sec : 0.019 m3/sec
V = Velocity in m/sec : 1.2 m/sec
A = Area in m2 = Q/V : 0.0095/1.2 = 0.008 m2
Consider width of Launder : 500 mm = 0.5 m
Depth of Launder : 0.008/0.5 = 0.016 m
Depth of Launder provide : 0.5 m = 500 mm

For the withdrawal of clarified water in to peripheral launder, 50 mm dia. Equi spaced submerged orifice provided.

Considered velocity through orifice : 0.4 m/s [As per standard practice]
Total area of opening required : .
= 0.0475 m2
.

Nos. of orifice of 50 mm dia. to provide : .


= 24
×( . )

Provide nos. of orifice : 35


CLARIFIED WATER TANK
Capacity : 68 m3/Hr
MOC : R C C with Top Cover
Detention time (As per Dept. guide line) : 30 minutes = 0.5 Hr.
Effective volume of tank : 34 m3
Consider side water depth (SWD) : 2.5 m
Area of tank : 13.6 m2
Size of tank : 4.25 × 3.2 m
Assuming free board : 300 mm = 0.3 m
Dimension of tank provided : 4.25 × 3.2 × 2.8 m Total Ht.

PRESSURE FILTER
MOC : M S Fabricated
Capacity : 68 m3/Hr
No of unit provided : 1
Capacity of each unit : 68 m3/Hr
Surface rating : 6 to 9 m3/hr/m2 (As per CPHEEO Manual)
We have proving diameter of Filter shell : 3.3 m
Area of Filter shell : 8.55 m2
Surface rating : 68/8.55 = 7.95 m3/hr/m2 (within specified limit)
Hence satisfied
