Sedimentation tanks may function either intermittently or continuously.The intermittent tanks also called quiescent type tanks are those which store water for a certain period and keep it in complete rest. In a continuous flow type tank, the flow velocity is only reduced and the water is not brought to complete rest as is done in an ...

Wastewater flow leaves the sedimentation tank over an effluent weir for further treatment. Process efficiency is controlled by detention time (normally about 2 hours), temperature, tank design, and equipment condition. The settling velocity of the particles is the key variable in the design of sedimentation tanks and separator channels.

Jan 05, 2021 H is the depth of the sedimentation tank and t is the residence time of the particle in the liquid in the tank. If we assume the residence time of the liquid is the residence time of the liquid in the tank, then it is the following (Equation 3.3): A is the cross-sectional area of the tank and Q is the overall volumetric flow rate through the tank.
