OL - 85 Introduction to Volumes for Water / Wastewater Operators
(W/WW Math Volumes)
General
Volume calculations are the most basic and frequently encountered type of math problems associated with the operation of a water or wastewater plant.
Two volume formulas are basic to more than 50% of all math problems encountered, and they are, as follows:
● The right cylinder formula for cylindrical geometrical objects and,
● The rectangular basin formula for rectangular geometrical objects.
Two lessons will cover the basics of geometry in relationship with cylinders and rectangular basin for applied mathematics for both water and wastewater operators, grades 1-2.
