Concept explainers

Collection Systems

The collection systems form a part of sanitary engineering, which is a sub-branch of civil engineering. It is also known as public health engineering and wastewater engineering. It is a methodology followed to remove and properly dispose of human waste, along with creating systems to provide safe and clean usable water. These measures ensure a hygienic and disease-free community. Sanitary engineering, apart from building sewer disposal units, is also involved in plumbing, fire protection, hydraulics, life safety, environmental protection, information technology, microbiology, pathology, and so on.

The BODs of a domestic wastewater sample is considered to be about 200 mg/l and the DO in it is measured as 0 mg/L. The laboratory staff are preparing to set up a BOD test to determine the actual BOD of the sample. The DO of the dilution water was measured to be 9 mg/I. Which of the following volume ratios of (total volume of BOD bottle = 300 mL) / (volume of wastewater sample) would be most appropriate to use in setting up the BOD bottle for incubation? Select one among the following: (a) 20/1; (b) 50/1; (c) 100/1; (d) 500/1. Justify your selection

Sketch a typical treatment process scheme for the treatment of raw water containing a turbidity of 19 NTU, Mn concentration of 0.07 mg/L, Fe concentration of 0.3 mg/L, TOC of 2 mg/L, coliform (#/mL) 800 and color of 18 CU.
A BOD test is to be run on a sample of wastewater that has a five-day BOD of 195 mg/L. If the initial DO of a mix of distilled water and wastewater is 9.0 mg/L, and the test requires a decrease in DO of at least 2.0 mg/L with at least 2.0 mg/L remaining at the end of the five days, what range of dilution factors (P) would produce acceptable results? In 300-mL bottles, what range of wastewater volumes could be used?

Then, you were asked to find out the biodegradability of this wastewater by conducting a 5-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5). A good indication for a biodegradable wastewater would have a COD/BOD ratio of 2 and above. Here, 55 mL of sample was employed for the test where the measured dissolved of oxygen at day 0 was 7.7 mg/L and 2.3 mg/L, respectively. Assess if the wastewater is biodegradable.
B: Determine the recycle sludge flowrate to the aeration tank if the wastewater flowrate is 2200 m³/d, mixed liquor suspended solids is 3500 mg/l and return suspended solids is 10000 mg/1?
