The town of Camp Verde has been directed to upgrade its primary WWTP to a second plant that can meet an effluent standard of 25 mg/L BOD5 and 30 mg/L suspended solids. They have selected a completely mixed activated sludge system for the upgrade. The existing primary treatment plant has a flow rate of 0.029 m^3/s. The effluent from the primary tank has BOD5 of 240 mg/L. Using the following assumptions, estimated the required volume of the aeration tank:

1. BOD5 of the effluent suspended solids is 70 percent of the allowable suspended solids concentration.

2. Growth constants value are estimated to be: Ks=100 mg/L BOD5; kd=0.025 d^-1; um=10 d^-1; Y=0.8 mg VSS/mg BOD5 removed.

3. The design MLVSS is 3000 mg/L Please provide all the work
