To Study the Effect of Tube Settler on Clarification.

      Аннотация: Installation of new treatment plants to meet the increased demand is beyond the reach of most of the local bodies and government as well. Hence ways and means are to be explored to augment water treatment capacity and to improve the performance of existing water treatment plants. Tube settler systems are inexpensive solution for drinking water and wastewater plants to increase treatment capacity of clarifier, improve effluent water quality, and decrease operating costs. Tube settlers use multiple tubular channels sloped at an angle of about 45o to 60o and adjacent to each other, which combine to form an increased effective settling area. Which combine to form an increased effective settling area. Current study focuses on the study made to understand the effect of length and inclination of tube settler on the effluent quality through the pilot plant study. The circular tubes of 45mm diameter were used with inclination of 45 and 60 degrees. Length of tube was varied as 60cm, 50cm and 40 cm.
