This Excel spreadsheet workbook has three worksheets to carry out basin sizing and aeration calculations for the membrane module(s), the aeration tank(s) and preanoxic denitrification tank(s). These calculations are based on the membrane module(s) being immersed in the aeration tank(s). There is also a worksheet for user input of wastewater flow and characteristics, and biological kinetic coefficients. The membrane module calculations require user input vaues of membrane module parameters that are typically available from the membrane module manufacturer or vendor. The aeration tank and preanoxic tank calculations use equations typically used for completely mixed activated sludge systems. Calculations are in U.S. units.
