Abstract
The use of the oxygen transfer principle is common in many water and wastewater treatment systems. The need for an accurate way of determining the amount of oxygen required, is often complicated by the fact that different temperatures are encountered during the operation of a treatment plant. The aeration equipment industry has agreed upon a quasiuniform value for the temperature coefficient; a coefficient which is used in determining the oxygen transfer rate at various temperatures. A series of experiments were conducted to determine the validity of this temperature coefficient.
