You place a 20 g sample of solid waste in a drying oven overnight and find the mass in the morning (after the moisture has been evaporated) to be 16.2 g. A 1 g (wet) sample is also placed in a 1L water jacket bomb calorimeter and 0.18 g of ash remains in the sample cup after combustion. The temperature in the calorimeter is raised by 2.17 ˚C. Calculate the heat value on a wet weight basis, dry weight basis, and on a moisture and ash-free basis. Convert your values to BTU/lb
Biomass and substrate mass balance equations can be merged giving QwXR/VX=Y/X (Qo/V) (So-S)-kd (i) Prove that X= SRT/HRT Note that HRT = t and SRT = tc. (ii) If you are an engineer working in a wastewater consultancy company, and obtained the following data: - SRT = 20 days HRT 20 hours = (Y(So-S)/1+kd(SRT)). So = 350 mg/L S = 100 mg/L Y = 0.15 kd = 0.22 per day Calculate the increment of MLSS (%) required in the aerobic tank if the discharge BOD5 in the effluent needs to achieve 10 mg/L.
