Surface Area in Environmental Engineering Formulas

Surface Area is the horizontal area available for sedimentation, impacting the tank’s capacity to separate solids, typically measured in square meters (m²). And is denoted by SA. Surface Area is usually measured using the Square Meter for Area. Note that the value of Surface Area is always positive.
