A secondary clarifier handles a total flow of 9600 m3/d from the aeration tank of a conventional activated-sludge treatment system. The concentration of solids in the flow from the aeration tank is 3000 mg/L.

The surface area of the designed clarifier for thickening (in m3, in integer) is _______.
