A 3 diameter biotower has been designed to treat sewage from 22,000 PE.Influent BOD = 250mg/l and wastewater flow through the primary clarifier removes 35 percent of the BOD and the flows into the biotower the constant r andom media n= 0.44, recycle ratio = 2 and operating temperature =2500c.
a determine the reaction rate constant k25 if the existing BOD =50mg/l
b what would be the biotower effluent at 200c if the recycle ratio is increase to 4
