Description: There are 19,500 inhabitants living in a municipality. The wastewater generated is conveyed through a combined sewer. A reach of this combined sewer located in a short distance upstream of the sewage treatment plant is rehabilitated with following features:


Circular profile: DN 1,000

Length: 800 m

Height difference: 10 m


The screw pump lifting station at the treatment plant has a dry weather inflow of 48 l/s.


Lay out the flow chart with the magnetic cards or sketch the chart. Calculate the slope of the new reach in per mill.
