For an SBR process, the sludge takes 45 minutes to settle and the depth of liquid in the reactor is 40% of the depth of the reactor after draw-off to prevent disturbing the settled sludge. The draw-off period takes an additional 20 minutes after the settle face. An idle time of 10 minutes is to be allowed. What is the required volume of each of the tanks in 2-tank and 3-tank SBR systems to handle a flow of 55000 M cubed per day to provide a react time of 60 minutes?
The removal of phenol in an industrial waste stream by microorganisms can be characterized as a first-order reaction. The reaction rate coefficient was measured in a batch system, k = 0.05 min¯¹. The proposed reactor size is constrained by existing process equipment to a square area 20 x 20 m. The effective liquid depth can be no greater than 2 m. For a flowrate of 10 m³/min, what is the most efficient reactor configuration: a single CMF, 4 CMF's in series, or a PF reactor? Support your decision with computations.
A centrifugal pump discharging 10 lps against 25 m of head and operating with an efficiency of 60% requires 4.1 kW at 1000 rpm. What is the theoretical discharge if the speed is increased to 1500 rpm assuming the efficiency remains constant? What is the theoretical head and kW at 1500 rpm?

A power plant in rough terrain has a 100-m stack with an inside radius of 1 m. The plant emits 300 g/s of SO2 from the stack with an exit velocity of 10 m/s at a temperature of 120oC. Ambient temperature is 6oC and the temperature increases at a rate of 2 K/km. At 10 m above ground, surface windspeed is 1.5 m/s on a mostly cloudy night. Find the concentration (mg/m3) of SO2: Directly downwind at a distance of 2 km. At a point located 2 km downwind and 0.1 km off the downwind axis. At the point downwind where it is a maximum. Approximately how far from the stack does this occur?
