Septic Tank Design Parameters and Calculations, Exams of Public Health

Design parameters for septic tanks, focusing on hydraulic residence time, sewage flow rate, and sludge production. It details calculations for sedimentation and sludge digestion zones, including minimum and required hrt, and volume determination. The document also includes notes on manhole placement, inlet/outlet connections, waterproofing, and structural details, emphasizing the importance of connecting septic tanks to further treatment processes when sewer systems are unavailable. It references doh administrative order no. 2019-0047 for national standards.
