Detention period for plain sedimentation water tanks = 4 to 8 hours (without coagulations)
Detention period for plain sedimentation water tanks = 2 to 2.5 hours (with coagulations)
Detention period for septic tanks = 12 to 36 hours.

For plain sedimentation tank aided with coagulation Dt=2 to 4 hrs.

For plain sedimentation tank without coagulation Dt=4 to 8 hrs so definately answer is 4 to 8 hrs.

Continuous flow type 2 to 4 hr for CAS.

And 4 to 8 hrs for plain sedimentaton.
