In the following practice problem, we’ll learn how to calculate detention time. \u00a0Simply put, it’s the amount of time the wastewater spends inside of a basin, such as a primary clarifier or a secondary clarifier. \u00a0For example, if an influent spends three hours inside of a basin to get from the point of entry to the outflow pipe, then its detention time is three hours. \u00a0It’s a fairly simple concept.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here’s a video that demonstrates how to calculate detention time.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
