Important points of Aerated lagoon

Based on principle of ASP
WW is treated with or without sludge cycle
Ponds or basin depth 1.5-5m can achieve 80-

90% removal of BOD with retention time of 1-10

days.
Oxygen is supplied by surface aerator
Aerobic system design at high F/M ratio
Faculative system designed at low F/M ratio
Particulate solids are degraded aerobically while
settled solid s are decomposed anaerobically at

Design a flow through type aerated lagoon without recycling the sludge for the 15 year

1.Projected population after 15 year by

using incremental increase method
Pn=P0(1+r/100)^n
P0=86700
n=no. of decade=1.5
r=average growth rate=10%
P0=initial population
P15=86700(1+.1)^1.5
P15=100024=1 lack

2- Calculate the volume of the lagoon

V=Q*MCRT=7500*5=37500 m^3
3- Calculate surface area of lagoon
As=vol. of lagoon/depth of tank
As=37500/4=9375m^2
4- Compute waste water temperature
Tww= (As*f*Ta+Q*Ti)/(As*f+Q)
1. In summer
Tww=(9375*.5*40+37500*27)/(9375*.5+37500)
Tww=28.44*C
2. Similarly in winter
Tww=25.22*C

5- Calculate effluent soluble substrate

S=(Ks*(1+Kd*MCRT))/(MCRT*(YK-Kd)-1)
S=(90*(1+.06*5))/(5*(.6*6-.6)-1)
S=7mg/l < 15mg/l acceptable
6-

Check for temperature effluent

1. For summer
BOD5 @ constt. Rate K28.44=K20(1.06)^Tww-20
K28.44=1.2(1.06)^28.44-20
K28.44=1.96d^-1
2. Similarly in winter
K25.22=1.62d^-1
Compute BOD5 by the relation S/S0=1/(1+K*MCRT)
in summer S=125/(1+1.96*5)
S=11.57mg/l < 15mg/l acceptable
Similarly in winter S=13.73mg/l <15 mg/l

-7

Calculate the concentration of biological sludge (MLVSS)

produced in reactor
Px(vss)=(Y*(S0-S))/(1+Kd*MCRT)
Px(vss)=(.6*(125-12.65))/(1+.06*5)
Px(vss)=51.85mg/l =52mg/l
8Approx imate sludge production
Px(vss)=(Y*(S0-S))=.6*(125-12.65)=67.41mg/l

9- Calculate suspended solids in lagoon effluent before settlin

SS in lagoon effluent before settling=influent SS + Biological s
SS in the lagoon effluent before settling=125+52=177mg/l

10- Calculate O2 requirement

O2 kg/d=Q(S0-S)/f- 1.42 Px
O2 kg/d=(37500(125-12.65)*1000*10^-6)/.68 -1.42*(52*(10^-6)*37500*
O2 kg/d=3426.77kg/d=142kg/hr
11- Calculate power required for supplying desired O2 each day
Nf=(N0(BCs(temp,alt)-Cl)*((1.02)^T-20)*A)/Cs
B=1
A=.85
T=28.44*C (summer)
Cl=1.2
N0=1.5 (assuming)
F=.92 for 500m
O2 saturation for tap water in field Csw=7.60
Cs=O2 saturation in tap water @20*C=9.08mg/l of water

Cs(temp,alt)=7.60*.92=6.992mg/l
Nf=(1.5(1*6.92-1.2)*((1.02)^28.44-20)*.85/9.08
Nf=.961kh/hp-h=23kg/hp-d
Power required to supply 3426kg of O2/d at field condition , P
P=3426/23=148.95=149 hp
