Volume Required for Anaerobic Digester Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Volume = (Hydraulic retention time*Influent Sludge Flow Rate)
VT = (θ*Qs)
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume is the amount of space that a substance or object occupies or that is enclosed within a container.
Hydraulic retention time - (Measured in Second) - Hydraulic retention time defined as the ratio between the reactor volume and the feed flow rate, represents the average time the cells and substrates stay inside the reactor.
Influent Sludge Flow Rate - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Influent Sludge Flow Rate is defined as discharge of sludge.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Hydraulic retention time: 4 Hour --> 14400 Second (Check conversion here)
Influent Sludge Flow Rate: 2 Cubic Meter per Second --> 2 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
VT = (θ*Qs) --> (14400*2)
Evaluating ... ...
VT = 28800
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
28800 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
28800 Cubic Meter <-- Volume

Endogenous Coefficient given Quantity of Volatile Solids
Go Endogenous coefficient = (1/Mean Cell Residence Time)-(Yield coefficient*(BOD in-BOD out)/(Volatile Solids produced*Mean Cell Residence Time))
Mean Cell Residence Time given Quantity of Volatile Solids
Go Mean Cell Residence Time = (1/Endogenous coefficient)-(Yield coefficient*(BOD in-BOD out)/(Volatile Solids produced*Endogenous coefficient))
Yield Coefficient given Quantity of Volatile Solids
Go Yield coefficient = (Volatile Solids produced*(1-Mean Cell Residence Time*Endogenous coefficient))/(BOD in-BOD out)
Quantity of Volatile Solids Produced Each Day
Go Volatile Solids produced = (Yield coefficient*(BOD in-BOD out))/(1-Endogenous coefficient*Mean Cell Residence Time)
BOD Out given Quantity of Volatile Solids
Go BOD out = BOD in-(Volatile Solids produced/Yield coefficient)*(1-Endogenous coefficient*Mean Cell Residence Time)
BOD in given Quantity of Volatile Solids
Go BOD in = (Volatile Solids produced/Yield coefficient)*(1-Endogenous coefficient*Mean Cell Residence Time)+BOD out
Volatile Solids produced given Percent Stabilization
Go Volatile Solids produced = (1/1.42)*(BOD in-BOD out-((Percent stabilization*BOD in)/100))
BOD Out given Percent Stabilization
Go BOD out = (BOD in*100-142*Volatile Solids produced-Percent stabilization*BOD in)/100
Percent Stabilization
Go Percent stabilization = ((BOD in-BOD out-1.42*Volatile Solids produced)/BOD in)*100
BOD in given Percent Stabilization
Go BOD in = (BOD out*100+142*Volatile Solids produced)/(100-Percent stabilization)
Volatile Solids produced given Volume of Methane Gas produced
Go Volatile Solids produced = (1/1.42)*(BOD in-BOD out-(Volume of methane/5.62))
BOD Out given Volume of Methane Gas Produced
Go BOD out = (BOD in-(Volume of methane/5.62)-(1.42*Volatile Solids produced))
BOD in given Volume of Methane Gas Produced
Go BOD in = (Volume of methane/5.62)+BOD out+(1.42*Volatile Solids produced)
Volume of Methane Gas Produced at Standard Conditions
Go Volume of methane = 5.62*(BOD in-BOD out-1.42*Volatile Solids produced)
Influent Sludge Flow Rate given Volume Required for Anaerobic Digester
Go Influent Sludge Flow Rate = (Volume/Hydraulic retention time)
Hydraulic Retention Time given Volume Required for Anaerobic Digester
Go Hydraulic Retention Time = (Volume/Influent Sludge Flow Rate)
Volume Required for Anaerobic Digester
Go Volume = (Hydraulic retention time*Influent Sludge Flow Rate)
Volumetric Flow Rate given Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester
Go Volumetric Flow Rate = (BOD per day/Volumetric loading)
BOD Per Day given Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester
Go BOD per day = (Volumetric loading*Volumetric Flow Rate)
Volumetric Loading in Anaerobic Digester
Go Volumetric loading = (BOD per day/Volumetric Flow Rate)

Volume Required for Anaerobic Digester Formula

Volume = (Hydraulic retention time*Influent Sludge Flow Rate)
