3The data for initial hindered settling velocities of a
suspension are given in the following table. a)Size the area of a
clarifier to handle a flow of 2300 m3/d containing a Total
Suspended Solids (TSS) concentration of 2100 mg/L. The underflow
SS. Concentration is 10 000 mg/L. b)What is theflowrate of the
underflow?
