Abstract:Investigations with three laboratory-model aeratedlagoons proved that incompletely mixed (or aerobic-anaerobic) aerated lagoons can be rationally designed by using the Wehner-Wilhelm equatiodor Thirumurthi chart, which graphically depicts that equation for applications in biological wastewater treatment. Whereas the biological factors (such as temperature and wastewater quality) are delineated by a first-order biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) removal coefficient (K), the physical-hydraulic regimes (such as mixi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
