how to estimate TSS removal efficiency with SWMM?

[ychenut]

I heard SWMM can do that, but how? I found in SWMM you could input decay coeff. for pollutants, that’s OK for BOD /COD, but for SS, I don’t think it works that way. To my knowledge, I would expect somewhere to input the geometry, flowrate, particle size distribution, settling speed etc. but can't find those blanks to fill in SWMM.

Or any other free program could do this?

I know one, called Det-Pond, but it need payment.

Not that I'm against doing with this with SWMM5, but have you looked at P8 (
