Sewer are generally combined with drainage waste and domestic and industrial waste. Drainage is nothing but the storm water.

In case of non monsoon there will be no waste from drainage (storm drain) so the value is constant.

How it is constant?

Percentage discharge in non monsoon will eliminate water coming through storm. So, as in sewer there will be sewage and drainage but in non monsoon it is only sewage.

So percentage discharge would be = Qs*100/(Qs+Qd) = 100/21.

How it is 20 I think it should be 5.

Can anyone explain it please?

Its correct during non monsoon periods only 1/20th to 1/30 th of design discharge will be passing through the sewers if combined system is adopted.

Garry said:   8 years ago
I think the answer is 5.
