Can any one suggest how to design tube settler for a flow of 8300 cum/ day (1 day = 23 hours operation) for a water treatment plant.
Please find attached herewith design of tube settler..Hope it would suffice ..

Dearc Sandeep,
As we know, tube settlers are a cost-effective solution for drinking water and wastewater plants to increase treatment capacity, reduce new installation footprints, improve effluent water quality, and decrease operating costs.
Tube settler coverage is the minimum required area tube settlers must cover to obtain the desired treatment.
To calculate in English units, all we need to know is
basin flow in MGD, overflow rate in gpm/ft2, and clarifier diameter in ft.
(# MGD) / (# gpm/ft2) / (1440 min/day) = Minimum Required Area
Tank Diameter / 2 = Clarifier Radius
Pi * R2 = Clarifier AreaClarifier Area – Minimum Required Area = Uncovered Area
SqRt(Uncovered Area/Pi) = Uncovered RadiusClarifier Radius – Uncovered Radius = Tube Settler Coverage
You get some more design calculation details here: http://www.edaenv.ca/_mndata/edaltd/uploaded_files/tube_settler.pdf
Or at Brentwood website - http://www.brentwoodindustries.com/resources/learning-center/water-wastewater/tube-settler-coverage-in-a-circular-clarifier/
Hope this info is useful, else you are suggested to POST an Question with more details.
