An Evaluation of the Design Criterion For Sewerage Peak Flow Factor At Segi University Hostel

Field monitoring of the sewage flows from a sewerage catchment servicing the hostel within SEGi University was performed using an area-velocity flowmeter. The data obtained were processed through the Flowlink software and the results show that the peak flow for the monitored duration occurred at ni...
