5. Lay-out and drainage network 5.1 Lay-out and drainage network for residential area
5.1.1
For the residential points, it can select the basic types of drainage pipeline as stipulate in item 3.3 of this standard. In reality, depending on the natural conditions, the existing condition of drainage and the urban properties, the following types can be applied flexibly:
-
The shared drainage network: it is implemented for the old urban area only having the existing shared type or for the urban area having the favorable natural conditions.
-
When making the drainage planning, it is necessary to consider the capacity of reforming the shared culvert into the totally separated one in the future.
-
The separate drainage network: to apply for the new urban areas, expanded urban area, accumulated residential area with high population density (over 200 people/ha).
-
The combined drainage network: to apply for the big cities.
In the old urban areas, the storm water on the roof, in the garden, and so on. is normally discharged with domestic sewage. The upgrading to separate the two individual network has many difficulties. In this case, we have the incompletely separated network. The semi-separate network can be applied for the new urban areas with high environment standards in order to guarantee the sanitary conditions for the water reservoir, storage lakes or bathing yard. 5.1.2. For the small areas with the population of less than 5000 people, depending on the annual rainfall and other conditions, it can be applied the incompletely separate type or simply shared culverts. NOTES: The simple shared culvert is the tube culvert with the reinforced strings is mainly served for surface drainage. The domestic wastewater is primarily treated by septic tanks within each house. 5.1.3. For the mountainous area, the incompletely separate network in which the storm water is directly disposed into the receiving resources, the wastewater can be transported by self-flowing or by pressure. 5.1.4. It can employ the central management method for one or some residential points or groups of isolated buildings or in combination with sewage in production area. 5.1.5. It can organize distributed drainage in case of low population density (less than 200 people/ha) and permitted sanitary conditions, particularly there is no risk of pollution of soil , and water resources. In case the distributed drainage organization can be applied for the wastewater treatment facilities as follows: -
Septic tanks of many kinds;
-
Septic tanks with the treatment facilities under the soil;
-
Aeroten air blowing lasting;
-
Biological lakes and filtration yard to plant trees.

Manholes have the culverts with diameters of 700 mm or more, it is allowed to make working platforms on one side of the trench. The platforms is far from the facing walls not less than 100 mm. In the manholes with the culverts of 2,000 mm or more in diameter, it is allowed to place on the working platform on cantilever beams; then, the size of drain openings must not be smaller than 2000x2000 mm. 6.5.3 The size of manholes shall be regulated as follows: a) The culverts with the diameter less than or equal to 800 mm , the internal size of manholes shall be: D = 1000 mm or axb = 1000 x 1000 mm). b) Drain culverts with the diameter D of 800 mm or more , the internal size of manholes is 1200 mm in length and D +500 mm in width). c) The gates of manholes has the smallest size of 600x700 mm or 700 mm in diameter.
NOTES: - The small manholes have the width of not more than 700 mm, the depth of not exceeding 1.20 m. - The manholes are made of concrete or reinforced concrete. The manholes are made of bricks just for drainage works in the small residential or urban areas. 6.5.4 Dimensions of manhole foundation in the turning points shall be determined by arrangement conditions of curved trenches in manholes. 6.5.5 The height of the working platforms in manholes (from working platforms to the supporting frame for the neck of the manholes) is usually taken at 1.8 m. The manholes are more than 1.8 m deep, there will not have the neck of the manholes. 5.5.6 There shall have ladders in manholes for maintenance work. Ladders can be fixed up on the body of the manholes or portable ladders. The distance between the ladder steps is 300 mm. The first ladder step is 0.5 m far from the manhole's mouth. 6.5.7 In areas of complete construction, the cover of the manholes is placed at the same level with the road surface. In the areas of planting trees, manhole covers must be 50-70 mm higher than the ground , while in the areas without building the distance is 200 mm. In case of special requirements (avoiding flooding by rainwater), the manhole covers may be set higher. 6.5.8 The manholes in storm water drainage network have the similar construction as those of wastewater network, but only the manhole bottoms shall be required to have sediment pits. Depending on the completion level of the drainage areas, the depth of sediment pits can be taken from 0.3 to 0.5 m. 6.5.9 There must be the solutions of waterproof for the walls and bottom of the manholes.

If using a reinforced concrete caps, the manhole mouths must have the appropriate structure to avoid chipping, or breakage due to impact of vehicles as well as opening and closing the caps. The size of reinforced concrete caps must ensure the convenient covering and opening. NOTES: - If manhole caps are placed on roads with heavy trucks, individual design calculation must be required. - In a municipality or an urban area, the manhole caps must be made in the same type.
5.6.11 When the sewer line is located in the high speed roadways with large traffic density, it is allowed to construct the manholes on pavements and connect with the drains by tunnels. The height of the tunnels is equal to the height of the largest drains, the tunnel basement is 0.3 m higher than the bottom of drains.
6.6 Manholes and connection wells to the urban sewage 6.6.1 Manholes (see clause 6.1.4) have the horizontal view of round or square shape with the size 400x400 mm or 600x600 mm. The manholes are usually arranged on pavements, and rarely opened, so the manhole caps can be made of reinforced concrete. The wells connected to the urban sewage can have simple structure. In the case of the street lines built in the type of separate houses, there will have more connections wells close together.
6.7 Well for washing drains 6.7.1 The first culvert segments of the totally separated sewer drainage network often fail to completely ensure self- cleaning speed, so there should arrange semi automatic or manual drain washing wells.
6.8 Wells in transition 6.8.1 Wells in transition are built for the following reasons: - Transfer of wastewater, storm water down to the drains with greater depth. - Ensuring the flow rate of water in the pipe does not exceed the allowable values or to avoid sudden changes of the flow rate. - In case of avoiding the underground facilities. - When discharging water in the flood discharge method . NOTES: For the pipes with the diameter smaller than 600mm, if the step switching height is less than 0.3 m, it is allowed to replace step switching wells with manhole with overflow dam smooth flow. 6.8.2 For step switching wells with the height less than 3m, on the sewer lines with the diameter of 600 mm or more, the type of spillway dam should be built. 6.8.3 For step switching wells with the height less than 3m, on the sewer lines with the diameter of 500 mm or more, the type having one vertical pipe inside and the cross section area not less than the input pipes should be built.
Above the standing pipe, there must have water collection funnels, under the standing pipe there is energy consuming holes with the metal plates placed at the bottom. NOTES: For the vertical pipes with the diameters under 300mm diameter, it is allowed to use flow orienting conduits the flow of energy to replace energy dissipaters. 6.8.4 When the height of switch level is greater than that specified in items 6.8.2 and 6.8.3, it is allowed to construct the wells according to their own design. These usually applied types of wells in this case include: ladder step-typed wells, eddy overflow dams, or so on.
6.9 Rainwater collecting wells 6.9.1 Storm water wells are located in the trench lines of roads have distances determined by calculation, in addition, there should arrange collecting wells in hollows, the crossroads and in front of walkway across the roads.

When the street width is greater than 30 meter or when the slope is greater than 0.03, the distance between the collecting wells shall not be more than 60m. 3. Regarding to the urban areas with high rainfall intensity, more plant leaves or garbage on the streets, it should be applied the type of the combined wells ( types of both pavement and curb collection) or increase the length of the collecting wells twice compared with conventional wells. 4. Regarding to the lower areas (often at crossroads) where there are multiple water flows to converge, the number of water collection wells must be increased double.
5. For mountainous areas, the streets often are steep at the points of collection wells, so it shall lower the surface of roads about 0.1 m or create turning angles to improve collection capacity of collection wells. 6.9.2 The length of the pipe sections connected from the collection wells to manholes of the culvert network shall not more than 40m. 6.9.3 It is permitted to connect storm water drain culverts of houses into the storm water collection wells. 6.9.4 The bottom of the rainwater collection wells is required to include sediment reservoir with the depth from 0.3 to 0.5 m and collection gates must have trash rack. Trash rack must be placed about 20-30 mm lower than the road trench. 6.9.5 For common drainage network in residential areas, the collection wells must be included hydraulic locks to prevent odors; water layer height shall not be less than 0.1 m . For urban areas with large annual evaporation quantity, it is necessary to apply combined hydraulic lock type in manholes (the wells connected with the collection wells). Despite hydraulic locks, by all cases it is still required to pay attention to ventilation for sewer drainage culverts. 6.9.6 Connecting to the sewer drain openings with closed culverts with the manholes having sediment pits, the craters of the pits must be placed with trash rack with the openings not exceeding 50mm; the diameter of connected pipe segment is determined by calculation but not less than 300 mm. 6.9.7 For the rainwater drainage network, when the level difference among the culvert bottom is less than or equal to 0.5 m, a diameter of the culvert is less than 1,500 mm and the speed does not exceed 4 m/s, the sewer connection with manholes is allowed. When the level difference is greater, the step switch wells are required.

The number of normal operating conduit shall be at least two, steel pipes coated with corrosion resistant layer and guaranteed from mechanical impacts. Each pipe must be tested the capacity of guiding calculated water flow with the consideration into the allowed rise level. If wastewater flow does not guarantee the minimum calculated speed, only use a pipe for operation and another pipe for emergency case. In addition two operating pipelines, it is required to build one standby pipe network for discharge in case of accidents.
When designing the conduit through rivers for water supply sources, it is required to acquire the local organs for natural resource and environmental management or local organs of stand-by sanitation for permission. When designing the conduit through rivers with the travel of ships and boats, it must comply with the river way safety regulations and must be approved by waterways management agencies. NOTES: When passing through the slit, dry valleys, it is allowed to put a threaded pipe. 6.10.2 When designing conduit, it should take: - Peak of the conduit is placed deeply, at least 0.5 m apart from the river bottom. - In the river areas with many vessels travelling through, the depth shall be not less than 1 m. - Inclination of pipe segments against in two riversides shall be not larger than 20o from horizontal line. - The distance between the outer edge of two conduit shall not be less than 0.7 to 1.5 m, depending on the pressure of water in the pipe. 6.10.3 The manholes located at the entrance, exist doors and emergency discharge wells must be installed with stop-logs.

6.12 Culvert discharge of wastewater, rainwater and storm water overflow wells
6.12.1 Wastewater discharge drain into rivers and lakes must ensure good conditions of dilution of stream water with wastewater and must not affect the aesthetic view and local environmental areas. Sewer discharge culverts into the rivers should be arranged in the areas so that it can enhance the disorder movement
of flow (shrinking space, falls or so on.) Depending on the conditions of the treated
wastewater discharge into rivers discharge types can be applied: coastal discharge or discharge into the center of the riverbed, concentrated or diffused discharge. When the treated wastewater is discharged into reservoirs, discharge doors must be deep under water surface. 6.12.2 The wastewater discharge pipes into the center of riverbed and deeply under water surface must be made of steel with corrosion resistant layer and placed in the trench. Discharge mouth is placed on the center of riverbed, coastal discharge and flood discharge all must be reinforced with concrete . The structure of discharge gates must take into account the following factors: traveling of boats and vessels, river water levels, the effect of waves, geological conditions, changes in the river bed, and so on. 6.12.3 Storm water discharge can apply these following types: 1. When there is no bank reinforcement- the type of open ditches. 2. When there is bank reinforcement- a sealed discharge gate. NOTE: To prevent the backflow of water from the receiver into sewer system (in the case of that water levels in the receiver is higher than the water level in the drain culverts), at the discharge gates backflow blocking valves should be installed. 6.12.4 Storm water overflow wells of common drainage systems shall have a spillway to prevent sewage (CSO). Dimensions and structure of overflow dams are dependent discharge of water flow into the source, the water levels in the receiving resources and sewer culverts. Storm water overflow wells must include deposition of blocking for sand sediment and trash rack. 6.12.5 Location of discharge gates for wastewater or storm water and their composition must be approved by agencies for natural resources and environment management and local agencies for waterways management. When designing the sewer network, the preliminary treatment works (sand or slurry sediment) should be considered to be built at the locations of combined sewer overflow (CSO) to ensure that rainwater or a mixture of rain water and waste water not to cause negative impacts on the sanitary conditions of the receiving water.

Selecting the minimum size of retained particles in tanks depends on the type of following treatment facilities. For settlement tanks where smudge should be handled in methane tanks or settling tanks with shells, the minimum size of retained sand grain shall be 0.2 to 0.25 mm. To create a constant speed in tanks, the entrance into the tanks must be built in the type for channel expansion, and the exit of narrow style and relevant length. 8.3.4 Designing sand settling tanks should follow the following rules: a) Horizontal sediment sand tanks: - Flow velocity in tanks at the maximum flow is0.3 m/s; at the lowest flow it is 0.15 m/s. - The hydraulic magnitude of retained sand grains in tanks U0 will be 18 to 24 mm/s. - Sand settling time shall not be less than 30 s at maximum flow. - Calculated depth Hn is from 0.25 to 1m. b ) Sediment sand tank with air blowing: - The hydraulic magnitude of sand grains U0 will be taken at 18mm/s. - The strength of air blowing is 3-5 m3/m2 h. - The transverse slope of tank bottoms (towards receiver trench) shall be from 0.2 to 04. - Doors to guide water into tanks shall coincide with the rotating direction of water in tanks and water discharge gates shall be submersed. - Total depth of tanks H shall be 0.2 to 3.5 m. - Gas distribution frame is made of copper tube with drilled holes of 3.5 mm diameter is located at a depth of 0.7 H. - Flow rate at maximum flow V is from 0.08 to 0.12 m/s. - The ratio between the width and depth of tanks B: H will be 1:1.5. c. For sand settling tanks of tangential type: - Selecting a surface load q 110 m3/m2.h with the largest flow of sewage, - Leading water into in the tangential manner,

8.3.5 The amount of retained sand
in sand settling tanks depends urban environment sanitation
conditions, the working status of the sewer network and the performance of sand settling tanks. In the absence of empirical data, it is allowed to calculate preliminarily the amount of retained sand according to the following criteria: - For completely private drainage system, retain sand amount is 0.02 l/person/d. - For common drainage system, retained sand amount is 0.04 l/person/d. - Humidity of sand is 60 %, the individual weight is about 1.5 t/m3. The sand discharged out of settling tank can be made by the following methods: - Manual method when sand amount is up to 0.1 m3/d. - Mechanical method, hydraulic method or pumping, and then transportation is made by pan conveyor when sand amount is over 0.1 m3/d. Technical water flow qh (l/s) during sand discharge by hydraulic lifting equipment is determined by the formula: qh = vh lsc bsc
( 19 )
In which: vh - Upward velocity of the flushing water flow in trench, is chosen to be 0.0065 m/s.
l sc - Length of bottom of sand settling tanks, excluding sand collected pits. bsc - The width of the lower bottom of sand settling tank, is selected to be 0.5 m.
Primarily, it can be set the technical water amount 20 times higher than removed sand amount of from tanks. 8.3.6 The volume of sand collecting pits shall be not larger than volumes of sand deposited in two days, inclination angle of the bottom shall be not less than 60o compared to the horizontal direction. 8.3.7 In order to stabilize the flow velocity in horizontal sand settling tanks, at the bottom of the tanks there should be spillway dam. Calculation of spillway dams uses the following formula: - The level difference between the tank bottom and overflow threshold (m):
P=
hmax − K q2 / 3hmin K q2 / 3 −1
(20)
In which: Kq - ratio of maximum and minimum flow (K = Qmax:q min). hmax, and hmin-The depth of water in tanks corresponds with qmax and q min, flow velocity V = 0.3 m/s. -
Width of overflow dam b0 (m):
b0 =
qmax m
2 g ( p + hmax ) 3 / 2
(21)
In which: m–flow coefficient of spillway dam depends on the shrinking condition of flow, will be taken 0.35 to 0.8. 8.3.8 To dry sand from sand settling tanks, there should be sand drying yards or sand pits. Around sand drying yards, high embankment is required to be 1-2m. Dimensions of sand drying yards are determined with the conditions: total height h of sand layer is selected to be 3-5 m3/m2.year. Dry sand is often transferred to other places. Water is separated from sand, then is transmitted to the first processes of wastewater treatment plants.
8.4 Regulating tanks 8.4.1 Regulating tanks are to regulate the flow and concentration of contaminants in wastewater and sewage produced in urban areas. Tank volume is determined by the flow chart and the graph of concentration fluctuations of contaminants in wastewater.
NOTES: If there are no diagrams of water discharge, tank volume can be determined according to wastewater in a production shift. 8.4.2 When an water regulating tank is placed in front of settling tank, there must have sedimentation proof equipment in the tank. Choosing regulating tanks (mixing with compressed air, with mechanical agitators, or tanks with many corridors) based on the oscillation characteristics of contaminant concentration (cycles, chaos or concentrated water discharge), as well as the characteristics and concentrations of suspended solids. 8.4.3 In the tanks with mixing agitators by compressed air or mechanical one, if wastewater contains volatile toxic substances, the covering and ventilation measures must be required. 8.4.4 Using stirred regulating tanks with compressed air to regulate the concentration of wastewater when suspended solids concentration is less than 500 mg/l with hydraulic magnitude of 10 mm/s. - Tank volume during accumulated wastewater discharge is calculated according to the following formula:
Wdh =
1.3qW t z K yc when K yc is less than 5 ln K yc −1
(22)
Wdh =1.3q w .ttt when K yc is equal to or more than 5
(23)
In which: qw - Wastewater flow, m3/h;
t tt - discharge time of collected wastewater volume, h; K yc - Regulating coefficient required and equal to:
K yc =
C max −CTB Ccp − Cmax
(24)
In which: C max - the largest concentration of contaminants during being discharged collectively, mg/l;
CTB - The average concentration of contaminants in wastewater, mg/l; Ccp - Allowed concentrations of contaminants after regulation depends on the work conditions of the
backyard facilities, mg/l.
8.4.5 Regulating tank volume (m3), when the concentration fluctuates periodically, is determined by the formula as follows: Wdh =0.21qt .t ck
K yc −1
when K yc < 5
(25)
Wdh =1.3qt .t ck K yc , when K yc > = 5
(26)
In which: t ck - fluctuation cycle of concentration, h; K yc - Required regulating coefficient, is determined by the formula (24).
With any fluctuating concentration, tank volume will be calculated based on the method of asymptotic approximation. 8.4.6 The distribution of the wastewater as per air-mixed regulating tank surface must ensure uniformity. Perforated distribution pipe or overflow gutter of section V, or U is used for distribution. Water flow velocity in the gutter will not be less than 0.4 m/s. 8.4.7 Aeration system of regulating tank is as follows: - Aeration equipment: the pipes of bored holes with diameter d = 5mm spaced 3-6 cm, located in lower side of the pipe. The pipe must be put absolutely horizontal, along vertical wall of the tank on racks at a height of 6-10 cm compared to the bottom. - If aerators are placed on only one side and close to the walls of the tank, the distance from the device to the opposite walls will be taken to be 1 to 1.5 H. - Diameter of aerators is taken at 50 mm if aeration intensity is less than 8m3/h for 1m in length and at 75mm in case of greater aeration intensity. 8.4.8 Regulating tanks with mechanical agitation is used to regulate the concentration of suspended solids over 500 mg/ l with any mode of input water in tanks. Tank volume with mechanical agitation is also similarly calculated to air aeration tanks. 8.4.9 Regulating tank volume with many corridors during concentrated wastewater discharge is determined by the formula:
Wdh = In which: qt - wastewater flow (m3/h);
qt ttt K yc 2
(27)
t tt - a period of concentrated wastewater discharge, (h); K yc - Required regulating coefficient.
8.4.10 Structure of volume regulating tanks is similar to that of stage 1 sedimentation tanks or normal tanks and must have holes to collect residue and residue discharge device. Pumps can be used to pump sewage
to next wastewater treatment facilities in the time of smallest flow. Calculation of
flow
regulating tank volume is similar to that of tanks or water towers in water supply systems. 4.8.11 Choosing the value of the non-regulating coefficients after regulation K dh , regulating tank volume Wdh is determined by the following relationships: y dh = K dh / K dho
(28)
t dh =Wdh / qTB
(29)
In which: K dhyo - no-regulating factor of wastewater flowing into tanks;
qTB - hour average flow of wastewater. The dependence between y dh and t dh is defined according to Table 30. Table 30 y dh t dh

8.5 Sedimentation tank 8.5.1 Choosing types of sedimentation tanks must be based on wastewater capacity, and characteristics, natural conditions and specific conditions of local areas. Generally, it can be chosen preliminarily the type of sedimentation tanks as per capacity of wastewater treatment plants as follows: Standing sediment tanks: Less than 20,000 m3/d. Horizontal sediment tanks: more than 15,000 m3/d. Centrifugal sediment tank: more than 20,000 m3/d. Settling tanks with two shells and settling tank combined with sludge fermentation are usually applied for wastewater treatment plants with small or medium capacity, less than 10,000 m3/d. 8.5.2 Number of sediment tanks shall be not less than two and all tanks must operate together. 8.5.3 Calculation of sedimentation tanks (except for 2 nd phase settling tanks after biological treatment facilities) is based on the study of deposition kinetics of suspended particles in consideration with necessary sediment efficiency. When wastewater is discharged after sedimentation tanks into the receiving water, the concentration of remaining suspended solids in wastewater must be ensured hygienic conditions according to environmental standards. 8.5.4 Calculation of sedimentation tanks according to the following formula: a) Sediment tank size: Length of horizontal settling tanks l (m): l=

8.16 Aeroten tanks 8.16.1 Aeroten for completely or incompletely biological treatment of urban and industrial wastewater. According hydrodynamic regime in aeroten tanks, it can be divided into 2 categories: aeroten mixing and aeroten pushing. Aeroten pushing is employed for wastewater treatment plants with a capacity greater than 10,000 m3/d. Aeroten mixing can be in blocks with settling tanks of many kinds, pure settling tanks and applications in case of the capacity of wastewater treatment plants under 20,000 m3/d. 8.16.2 The wastewater cleaning efficiency of aeroten tanks are shown in two aspects: processing efficiency by biological activities in aeroten tanks and sedimentation efficiency in 2 nd phase settling
tanks. Provided that proper design aeroten tanks, 2nd phase sedimentation tanks could work with the loads as follows: - Aeroten for low-load mud (< 0.2 kg BOD/kg mud.d), 2 nd phase settling tanks can work with the load q= 0.9 m3/m2.h. - Aeroten for medium load mud (0.2 to 1.0 kg BOD/kg mud.d), 2 nd phase settling tanks can work with the load q = 2.0-2.5 m3/m2.h. - Aeroten for high load mud (>1.0 kg BOD/kg bun.d), 2 nd phase settling tanks can work with the low load, likely at only m3/m2.h q = 0.4. - When calculating for design of aeroten tanks, it can be used a number of different formulas, but there should be testing calculations to confirm that the material balance in the whole system and working load of aeroten and 2nd phase settling tanks lie within the allowable range. 8.16.3 Activated sludge should be recycled for aeroten pushing in the following cases: - When BOD5 of sewage put into aeroten La is larger than 150 mg/l. - Production sewage contain substances to present biochemical oxygen. - Wastewater is treated incompletely biological (BOD5 after treatment is greater than 20 mg/l). 8.16.4 The volume of aeroten W (m3) is calculated according to the following formula:

I - The mud indicator, typically from 100 to 200 ml/g;
(61)
a- Dose of activated sludge as per dry matter (g/l), is selected as follows: o 2-3 g/l for aeroten with high sludge load; o 2.5-3.5 g/l for aeroten with average sludge load; o 3-4 g/l for aeroten with low sludge load; o 3-5 g/l for aeroten with extended air-blower; o 5 g/l for completely mineralized aeroten. 8.16.5 Gas blowing time (processing time) wastewater t (h) of mixed aeroten is determined by the following formula:
t=
La − Lt 15 a (1 − Tr ) ρ T
(62)
In which: T - average temperature of the mixture of wastewater in winter (oC); La and Lt - BOD5 of wastewater before and after treatment (mg/l); Tr – Ash level of activated sludge, depending on types of sewage, and is selected according to Table 46;
ρ - private oxidation rate of organic matter (mgBOD5/g non-ash dry matter of sludge in 1h), is determined by the following formula:
ρ = ρmax
Lt C0 1 x Lt C0 + K1C0 + K 0 Lt 1 + ϕa
(63)
ρmax - largest private oxidation speed (BOD5 mg/g non-ash dry matter of sludge ) in 1 h ; C0 - dissolved oxygen concentrations necessary to maintain in aeroten (mg/l);
K1 - typical constants for the nature of organic contaminants in wastewater (BOD mg/l); K 0 - constant considering the impacts of dissolved oxygen (mg O2/l);
φ - coefficient considering restriction of biological processes by degradation products of activated sludge (l/h). The values of ρmax , K1 , K 0 , φ and Tr of different types of sewage and are determined by empirical studies, or as indicated in Table 46 .

The mixture of mud and wastewater is collected at the end of tanks. To ensure hydrodynamic regime of the tank on the pushing principle, the size of aeroten corridor is as follows: - Working height H = 3-6 m;
- Width of each corridor B ≤ 2H; - Length L ≥ 10H corridor. For pushing aeroten with regeneration compartment, based on the ratio Wts/W can be selected the number of aeroten corridors. When this ratio is 25%, choose aeroten with 4 corridors; while the rate is 30 % , then select aeroten with 3 corridors; and the percentage is 50% , choose two corridors. 8.16.9 It is required to consider that aeroten tanks can work with fluctuated volume of regeneration compartment. 8.16.10 circulating activated sludge in the sludge regeneration Aeroten not determined by the concentration of sludge in tanks and the concentration of circulating activated sludge, shall be obtained under the provisions of 8.16.4 and 8.16.7. 8.16.11 When calculating aeroten for production wastewater treatment, sludge concentration, average rate of oxidation, unit air flow and sludge biomass increase obtained from the practical research results. 8.16.12 Increased biomass sludge Pr (mg/l) in aeroten compartments during domestic wastewater treatment will be identified according to the formula: Pr = 0.8C1 + 0.3La

8.20 Neutralization of sewage 8.20.1 Sewage required for biological treatment must have a pH from 6.5 to 8.5 and during discharge into the receiving water, it must have a pH between 6 and 9. If the pH is out of this value range, it is required to neutralize sewage. a) To neutralize sewage, firstly consider the self-neutralizing ability among types of acid and alkaline containing sewage. Only when it is impossible to take advantage of the mentioned possibilities, then it is allowed to use chemicals to neutralize sewage.
b) Amount of chemicals to neutralize sewage is determined from neutral conditions and the composition of acid or alkaline content such as heavy metals in sewage. The surplus of chemicals must be 10% compared to the calculated amount. NOTES: When determining the amount of chemicals, it is required to take into account the interaction between acid and alkaline reserves, as well as acid and alkaline contained in domestic sewage and lakes, and ponds. c) The most suitable chemical to neutralize acid containing sewage is limestone in the form of activated calcium oxide 5%. It is possible to make use of waste alkali (caustic soda or potassium hydroxide). In addition, it may put sulfuric acid containing sewage to be filtered through layers of limestone or dolomite rock. d) To create acidity for sewage and to neutralize alkaline sewage, technical sulfuric acid should be used. e) To remove residue, it is required to use a sedimentation tank with deposition time of 2h. f) Separated sediment can be dried in drying yard or separating water by conveyor type pressing filters or vacuum filtration.

In case of additional nutrients during dealing with biological methods, the corresponding devices must also be included. 8.21.2 Chemical coagulants often used are aluminum salts, iron salts and lime. The flocculation adjutants are soluble organic polymers (anions, cations). 8.21.3 Type of flocculation chemicals and their amount are selected on the basis of experimental studies, depending on the nature of the contaminants, the level of required treatment and other local conditions. 8.21.4 During sewage treatment by the flocculation chemicals, it is required to pay attention to ensure optimal value of pH. With urban sewage, and pH of below 7, alum alkaline is selected; in case of pH of above 7, iron alkaline is used. The preparation of flocculation chemicals and mixture of alum solution with treating water can be made in supply water treatment. 8.21.5 Allow mixed with chemical flocculation sewage stirrer or pump on sewage thruster.

12.2.1 Design of ventilation for houses and buildings of the drainage system must comply with the provisions of this standard, taking into account the requirements of the design standards of auxiliary houses and buildings of industrial enterprises. 12.2.2 In the buildings or rooms to place trash racks, air ventilation is required to push up to 80% ventilation air from closed channels and 20% from the upper parts of rooms and the trash collection places of trash grinding plants. 12.2.3 In wastewater pump stations, separate wind drain pipe is required for turbine rooms and tank rooms are allowed to arrange combined discharge device in case of one-way valves on wind pipes, tank rooms and trash racks. Air exchange must be ensured continuously so that the air can avoid from being contaminated over permissible limits. 12.2.4 In machine room and storage tanks of sewage pumping stations, when there is toxic air leakage, in addition to ventilation systems in the mode of regularly working, it should be included the devices to transmit signals to the center, to control measurement of poisonous gas level, and emergency ventilation systems. 12.2.5 In the tunnels with drainage systems arranged, there must have natural ventilation system, and mechanical ventilation systems before workers go down into the tunnels. When the wastewater contains toxic substances, explosive or is exothermic, it is required to include mechanical ventilation. The number of air changes is determined by calculation. Control equipment of mechanical ventilation system are arranged at the doors of tunnels.
13 Some additional requirements for construction drainage system in the special areas 13.1 The area of settlement land 13.1.1 Design construction sewer system in settlement lands must comply with the design standards of house and building foundations. When designing the works with pipelines, the ground must be treated appropriate to ensure stability and durability. 13.1.2 The distances between buildings, works and piping will be taken from the requirements of Chapter 14 of the standard design of water supply. 13.1.3 Pipes going through the wall or bridge foundation are placed exposed or put behind cage pipes. The size of holes or caged pipe must be larger than squeezed pipes. Use elastic material for caulking cracks.
13.1.4 Sludge drying yard must set lower than other treatment facilities. It is not allowed to discharge penetrated water of mud drying yards into the land of construction area.
13.2 Earthquake zone 13.2.1 When designing drainage systems for industrial factories and urban areas locating in the zone of earthquakes, preventive measures must be required to avoid wastewater from flooding the construction area, polluting underground water and surface water sources due to the destruction of pipeline cleaning facilities. On the drainage network, the emergency discharge gates should be arranged. 13.2.2 Bio-lakes or penetrating yards should be applied to clean waste water. 13.2.3 The pumping stations of the project are located in the earthquake zone level 7, and level 8, the connecting location of pipes to pump stations, the project must resolve with flexible connection to avoid broken pipes. 13.2.4 For self-running networks in the earthquake zone level 7-8, it is designed to use reinforced concrete pipe, not allowed to use concrete pipe without reinforcement. 13.2.5 For pressure pipelines in earthquake zones of level 6 or higher, design should be applied as follows: - For reinforced concrete pipe, take the pipes number of one level higher than that of the areas without earthquake. - Cast iron pipe with working pressure up to 60 N/cm2, while steel pipe with working pressure of 90 N/cm2 or higher. 13.2.6 Flexible connection for reinforced concrete pipe, cast iron pipe with or without pressure-bearing in an earthquake zone . 13.2.7 Design of drainage houses and works in seismic regions should follow building design standard for the seismic areas and the requirements stated in the standard TCXDVN 33:2006 - Water Supply -Pipeline networks and structures - Design Standards.
