Nearly 100%. Sludge before thickening is usually 0.5% solids, and the solid chunks that are eventually hauled off to the dump are above 10% solids.

I have a figure that claims 20,000 gallons per year per person in the US although I can't cite the source. I believe it was in one of these two books: The Urban Environmental Reader or Urban Environmental Planning.

20,000g/365days = 54.8 g

Sewage treatment plants are built to meet service requirements so they can be sized for almost any daily flow from a one family home to a large city.

Why is sewage mixed with air?

Sanitary sewage is treated in plants that mix the raw sewage with bacteria to consume the waste materials. The nature of these bacteria is that they need oxygen to live and grow (they are aerobic bacteria). The plant equipment mixes air into the sewage to increase the transfer of oxygen to the water at much higher rates than quiescent conditions. A an added advantage this mixes the bacteria and sewage so that the bacterial population is much higher and the treatment much faster. The "full" bacteria are separated from the clean water which is discharged to surface watercourses.
