Sloka WWTP case study. The aim of study was to examine the individual effect of the scouring on sludge particle escaping from clarifier due to variation of incoming flow rate. The study describes results of a full-scale clarifier test for the design flow rate 250 m3/h, simulation results for the emergency flow 750 m3/h, when in operation only one process line. The results of practical application show, that to control the activated sludge particle escaping from secondary clarifier the local velocity profiles per each clarifier working zones can be used.
