What is the value for α for mechanical aeration aeration for the following equation. α= KLA(wastewater) /KLA(Tap water)

What is the value for α for mechanical aeration aeration for the following equation. α= KLA(wastewater) /KLA(Tap water) Correct Answer 0.6-1.2

Usually the value for α varies between 0.3-1.2. The value for α is usually between 0.6-1.2 for mechanical aeration. KLA is Oxygen mass transfer coefficient.α is the correction factor.α depends on the geometry of the basin, degree of mixing and wastewater characteristics.
