Solids will settle. ✔✔What will happen if the flow is too slow in a collection system? Odors, Corrosion, Hydrogen Sulfide Gas (all of the above) ✔✔A short detention time in the collection system will help prevent which of the following problems? Low areas must be sewered. ✔✔When are lift (pumping) stations installed in a collection system?

What is "X" equal to? 3,000,000gal/1,500,000MGD = 2 days = 48 hours ✔✔The volume of a tank is 3,000,000 gallons (3MG) and the flow rate into the tank is 1,500,000 gallons per day (1.5 MGD). Calculate the detention time in hours. (750 GPM)(60 min/hr)(24 hr/day)/1,000,000 = 1.08 MGD ✔✔A pump is rated at 750 gpm.
