The present population of a community is 28,000 with an average water consumption of 4200 m’/day. The existing water treatment plant has a design capacity of 6000 m’/day. It is expected that the population will increase to 44,000 during the next 20 years. The number of years from now when the plant will reach its design capacity, assuming an arithmetic rate of population growth,
In the figure shown below, it is desired to pump 3,411,000 lit/day of water from a stream to a pool. If the combined pump and motor efficiency is 70%, calculate the following: (a) total pumping head in meters, (b) the power required by the pump, and (c) the monthly power cost if clectricity rate is P6.00 per kW-hr. Assume that the pump operates for 24 hours and take 1 month = 30 days. Length (m) 1,525 Diameter Hazen El. 90 m Pipe (mm) 200 100 1,525 200 110. 915 150 140 PUMP El, 47 m 1 2 3
4. A community has a current population of 25,000. 10 years ago, the population was 18,500 and the community has a geometric growth rate. The total water consumption for the community at present is 4.0 million gallons per day. The treatment plant has a capacity of 6.0 million gallons per day. Determine how many years from now the consumption will reach 85% of its design capacity if current water usage rates remain steady.

A 20,000 L tank of water with pH of 7.5 is to be treated with a liquid hydrogen bromide acid (HBr). If after 5000 L of the acid was added to the volume in the tank the pH becomes 5.5, how much mass of hydrogen was added to the system? How much total HBr was added?
Drinking water from a dam which undergoes conventional treatment has a computed chlorine demand (due to silt, corrosion and bacteria) amounting to 3.5 ppm. Per PNSDW, such drinking water must have a mandatory chlorine residual of 1.0 ppm at source. If production flow is at 500 cu.m./day, calculate the chlorine dosage needed in pounds per day (PPD).

Six years ago, an 80-kW diesel-electric set cost $145,000. The cost index for this class of equipment six years ago was 187 and is now 194. The plant engineering staff was considering a 120-kW unit of the same general design to power a small isolated plant that would have cost $200,145. Based on the information above the plant engineering staff is considering a 100-kW unit of the same general design to power a small isolated plant. Assume we want to add a pre-compressor, which (when isolated and estimated separately) currently costs $10,000. Determine the total cost of the 100-kW unit.
