r <br /> ONVENTIONAL SEPTIC TANKS AND GREASE TRAP INTERCEPTOR TANK <br /> ptic tanks store the accumulated sludge, scum and effluent(clear zone)volumes, which in turn <br /> fect treatment of nitrogen within the tanks. In the following calculation,the pump-out interval <br /> ctor times the QAVE times the peaking factor(PF) correlate the pump-out time interval in years with <br /> the recommended tank capacity. The peaking factor value for this project is estimated to be 4.5: <br /> PF=peak average flpwrate(Based on FM e,iW;at= 800 x 10 = 8,000 gpd =4.5 <br /> Average flowrate 1,775 gpd <br /> Septic Tank Capacity Based on Pump-out Interval of One Year: <br /> Recommended tank capacity for a potential pump-out interval of one year: <br /> 1.0(pump-out interval factor)(QAVE) x Peaking Factor(PF=4.5) = 1.0(1,775 gals/day) x 4.5 =7,988 gals <br /> Septic Tank Capacity: Restroom southwest of Kitchen =one - 1,200 gallons = 1,200 gallons <br /> Septic Tank Capacity: Men's and Women's Restrooms =three- 2,000 gallon tanks=6,000 gallons <br /> Interceptor Grease Tank Capacity: Kitchen =one - 2.000 gallon tanks = 2,000 gallons <br /> Total Tank Capacity = 9,200 gallons <br /> Detention Time: <br /> Detention Time=9,200 gal total tank capacity x 0.85 (15%volume lost to sludge/scum accumulation(d.,.i <br /> 4.5 (Peaking factor)x 1,775 gals/day(ADF) <br /> Detention Time= 1.0 days.
