Abstract
The design of aeration tanks in which diffused air is used for aeration, as differentiated from tanks with mechanical, surface aeration apparatus, is treated in this paper. An endeavor has been made to present the bases of theory and practice governing the design of the principal elements of diffused-air aeration tanks. The derivation of practicable bases of design has been made possible by the wealth of research, experimental, and plant-operation data which have been made available during the past few years particularly through the work of such agencies as the Sanitary District of Chicago.
