DEPURBOX GLOSSARY TERM DEFINITION Population Equivalent (g BOD5 /head day) Amount of biodegradable organic substances that are discharged in one day, resulting from the normal activities of a person, such as the use of bathroom and kitchen. It is measured indirectly based on the quantity of oxygen needed to enable the bacteria to modify the biodegradable organic substances contained in the wastewater and render them harmless within a time span of five days (Biological Oxygen Demand 5 = BOD5). On the average, the reference value is 60 grams of oxygen per day. Daily organic load (kgBOD5/day)...

TERM DEFINITION Secondary settlement time (hours) Minimum interval of time required for the completion of the settlement process. It can be calculated by dividing the secondary settlement volume by the average flow per hour. Settlement rising speed (m/h) Maximum speed of liquid passage through the settlement compartments or tanks in order to avoid any entrainment of sludge to the next compartment or tank. It is normally calculated by dividing the average flow per hour by the area of the settlement compartment or tank. Sludge digestion volume (litres) Volume of that part of the system where...
