Wastewater Design: mlss_mbr to tn_removal_activated_sludge
Wastewater treatment design criteria — process design parameters (HRT, SRT, MLSS, F/M, loading rates, membrane flux, G values, filtration rates, membrane pressure/flux/energy, GAC contactor, air stripping, energy consumption by process, blower efficiency) and removal efficiencies (BOD, TSS, TN, TP) for activated sludge, SBR, MBR, oxidation ditch, trickling filter, aerated lagoon, facultative lagoon, grit chambers, rapid mixing, flocculation, depth filtration, MF, UF, NF, RO, GAC adsorption, and air stripping; also covers influent wastewater characterization (composition by strength, per-capita loadings, BOD/COD ratios) and design flowrates for commercial, institutional, and recreational facilities
