3 APPENDIX B. FINAL CLARIFIER MINIMUM DESIGN CRITERIA [REVOKED] Treatment Process ***** Conventional, trickling filter, step aeration, complete mix, and carbonaceous state of separate nitrification Extended aeration and Single stage nitrification As used in Rule 252: Surface Overflow Rate (gal/ft 2 /day) Average Design Flow * Peak Hourly Flow Peak Solids Loading Rate*** (lb/day/ft 2 ) 600 1,200 ** , Two-stage nitrification Activated sludge with chemical addition to mixed liquor to remove Phosphorus to less than 1.0 mg/l * based on influent design flow only **** 35 ** plants needing to meet 20 mg/l suspended solids should reduce surface overflow rate to 1,000 gpd/ft 2 *** Base the clarifier peak solids loading rate on the design maximum day flow rate plus the design maximum return sludge rate requirement and the design MLSS under aeration. **** When phosphorus removal to a concentration of less than 1.0 mg/l is required ***** All clarifiers must have a minimum side water depth of 12 feet 57

5 APPENDIX C. CASCADE AERATION [REVOKED] Formulas that may be used to determine the required cascade height (see rule 252: ): (23-1) r = ( C s C 0 ) ( C s C ) (23-2) h = ( r 1 ) [ 0.11 ab ( T ) ] where: r = The deficit ratio C s = DO saturation concentration of the wastewater at temperature T, mg/l C o = DO concentration of water before aeration, mg/l C = Required DO concentration after aeration, mg/l a = Water quality parameter equal to 0.8 for a wastewater treatment plant effluent b = Weir geometry parameter equal to unity for a free weir, 1.1 for steps, and 1.3 for the step weirs T = Water temperature in degrees o C h = Total height in feet through which water falls.
