The detention period is the amount of time that water spends in the tank. The detention period for a plain sedimentation tank is typically 4 to 8 hours. This allows enough time for the suspended solids to settle to the bottom of the tank, where they can be removed.<\/p>\n<p>Option B is incorrect because the detention period for a plain sedimentation tank is typically 4 to 8 hours, not 8 to 16 hours.<\/p>\n<p>Option C is incorrect because the detention period for a plain sedimentation tank is typically 4 to 8 hours, not 16 to 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>Option D is incorrect because the detention period for a plain sedimentation tank is typically 4 to 8 hours, not 24 to 36 hours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;4 to 8 hours&#8221;
