Combined system of sewers: both storm water runoff and sewage in the
same pipe
Separate system of sewers: transports sewage alone and storm water runoff
alone (or directly to surface water)
On the other hand, waste water can be conveyed by gravity, can be pumped
or conveyed by vacuum.
2. WHAT KIND OF POLLUTANTS ARE IN COMMUNAL WASTE WATER?
than the BOD as the chemical oxidising agent will often oxidise more
compounds than is possible under biological conditions.

Where:
= settling velocity from Stokes law [m/s]
= diameter of the solid (particle considered) [m]
= density of the solid [kg/m]
= density of the fluid [kg/m]
= gravity acceleration [m/s]
= dynamic viscosity of the fluid [kg/(ms)]
7. HOW CAN YOU CALCULATE THE MINIMUM LENGTH OF A HORIZONTAL
FLOW RECTANGULAR SETTLEMENT TANK, IF THE SETTLING
VELOCITY, THE INLET VOLUME FLOW RATE, THE WIDTH AND THE
DEPTH OF THE BASIN ARE GIVEN?

The recirculation of part of the sludge from the secondary settlement tank
ensures that the same amount of microorganism will remains in the treatment
system.
Biofilm process, since the rotating leaves are covered with biofilm at which
the waste water pass through.
A part of the bed is saturated at inlet point of water and reaches adsorption
equilibrum. This part of the bed is not able to further adhesion so moves
towards the outlet zone of the water. Zones in the bed are:
saturated zone
adsorption or operation zone
free zone
Water flow to be cleared into the adsorber has to be turned off at
breakthrough point or exhaustion point, and let into another adsorber
column. Saturated adsorber has to be regenerated (desorbed.)

REMOVAL PROCESSES OF THEM?
