Detention Time given Displacement Efficiency of Sedimentation Tank Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Detention time = Flowing through Period/Displacement Efficiency
Td = Ft/De
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Detention time - (Measured in Second) - Detention time is the length of time water is retained in a vessel or basin.
Flowing through Period - (Measured in Second) - Flowing through Period is the time taken by the flow.
Displacement Efficiency - Displacement efficiency is the ratio of flowing period to detention period.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Flowing through Period: 2 Second --> 2 Second No Conversion Required
Displacement Efficiency: 0.01 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Td = Ft/De --> 2/0.01
Evaluating ... ...
Td = 200
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
200 Second -->3.33333333333333 Minute (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
3.33333333333333 3.333333 Minute <-- Detention time
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Sedimentation?

Sedimentation is a physical water treatment process using gravity to remove suspended solids from water. Solid particles entrained by the turbulence of moving water may be removed naturally by sedimentation in the still water of lakes and oceans.
