The wastewater contains 7.5 x 105 fecal CFU per liter. The permissible fecal coliform concentration is 3500 fecal coliform CFU/L. Calculate the length of pipe required if the linear velocity of the wastewater pipe is 0.75 m/s. Take the reaction rate constant for the destruction of the fecal coliform is 0.24 per min.
A contaminant is present in an industrial wastewater at a concentration of 268 mg/L and can be degraded according to a first-order reaction. Previous research has identified that K contaminant is regulated at 2.5 mg/L and must be removed prior to discharge to the sewer. 1. 5.2/hr. The a. Identify the required reaction time (in hours) to degrade the contaminant to the target effluent concentration of 2.5 mg/L in an ideal continuously-stirred tank reactor (CSTR). b. Identify the required reaction time (in hours) to degrade the contaminant to the target effluent concentration of 2.5 mg/L in an ideal plug flow reactor (PFR). If the wastewater flowrate is 7,000 gallons/day (gpd), identify the volume required (in gallons and ft') for ideal CSTR and PFR treatment system to achieve the target effluent concentration of 2.5 mg/L. d. Management would like to use two 500 gallon tanks operated as two-CSTRS in series to treat the wastewater at a flowrate of 7,000 (gpd). Will this be satisfactory for…
A sample of diluted wastewater (diluted 10 times) has a 5-day biological oxygen demand (BOD) of 5 mg/L. If the rate constant is 0.1/d, assuming a first-order chemical reaction, the ultimate BOD of the original wastewater is most nearly (A) 0.50 mg/L (B) 5.0 mg/L (C) 13 mg/L (D) 130 mg/L
Problem: 1. Design a facultative pond to treat (10650)gpm of sewage having (10650/20)mg/L of BOD. The average summer and winter temperature is 43°C and 13°C, respectively. Convert the same pond into aerated lagoon, if the concentration of influent BOD reaches to (10650)mg/L. 2. Determine the diameter of a trickling filter for a wastewater flowing at the rate of (10650)m³/day. The influent BOD (S.) concentration for the wastewater is (10650 * 10)mg/L, whereas desirable effluent BOD should be as per NEQS.

A jar test reveals that the optimum alum coagulant dose is 50 mg/L at a pH of 8.1 and a temperature of 73 F. How many pounds per day of 49% alum are required for the whole plant? Total flow is 36 MGD with four parallel treatment plants, each designed for 12 MGD. Could use some guidance on setting up the equations.

H2. Evaluate the similarities and differences between sewage treatment process against industrial wastewater treatment process in terms of typical characteristics of the influent to be treated, process treatment involved, the effluent from the system and the quality of the sludge generated from these two treatment processes.

A system is designed to treat contaminant X with two PFRs in series. The concentration of contaminant X entering the first PFR is 120 mg/L and the inflow is 420 L/s. The first PFR is 5000 m³ in size, and the contaminant reacts via first order kinetics with a k value of 0.50 (1/hr). The second tank is being built so that the treatment facility can meet the permit level for contaminant X of 9.4 mg/L. What size do they need to make the second tank in m³?
