    Vikaas Sager
    The document contains the characteristics of a rapid sand filter being designed for Eau Gaullie, including depth, filtration rate, sand specific gravity, and water temperature. It provides sieve analysis data for the sand. Using the provided information and equations, the headloss for the clean filter bed is calculated to be 0.52537786062066 meters. The height of the expanded bed during backwashing at a rate of 1,000 m/d is calculated to be 0.759494085919557 meters. The number of filter beds needed for a maximum daily design flow of 3,800 m^3/day is calculated to be 2 filters.
