Flow rate: 1.5 m3/s Pollution: pesticide permethrin Lake size: 100m x100m x 2.5m Steady state concentration of permethrin leaving the lake is 1.4 ppm Average cross-sectional area of the river is 2.7 m2. Half-life of permethrin in this environment is 19 hrs. What is the concentration of permethrin entering the lake and what distance downstream of the outlet would the concentration be less than 1 ppm?
Dear I need solution for this problem also The system of two basins shown in the picture, full flow stream 3785x1000 l/day in which the concentration of non-conservative pollutant is 20mg/l. The rate of decomposition of a non-conservative pollutant is 0.3/day. The volume of the first pool is 18925x1000 l and the second one is 11355x1000 l. Assuming complete mixing in each basin, determine the concentration of the non-conservative pollutant that leaves the individual basins. Please se attachemnt . Thank You very much
A city discharges 100 cumecs of sewage into a river, which is fully saturated with oxygen and flowing at the rate of 1500 cumecs during its lean days with a velocity of 0.1 m/sec. The 5-days BOD of sewage at the given temperature is 280 mg/l. Find when and where the critical D.O. deficit will occur in the downstream portion of the river, and what is its amount. Assume coefficient of purification of the stream (f) as 4.0, and coefficient of deoxygenation (KD) as 0.1.
A municipal wastewater flow of 1,000 m³/d contains 400 mg/L BOD5 and is treated to be in a trickling filter. The filter will use a plastic filter medium with a specific surface area of 200 m³/m² and will operate with a recirculation ratio of 100% and a hydraulic loading of 25 m³/m² -d. Taking both surface loading and volumetric loading criteria into consideration, what volume (m³) of plastic media should be installed?
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
A city wishes to discharge wastewater primary effluent to a river which supports a trout. The state requires the city to show that the trout population is protected. Trout require a minimum of 4 mg/l of dissolved oxygen to survive. Determine the minimum downstream dissolved oxygen concentration from the following information about the wastewater discharge and river. Does the minimum dissolved oxygen concentration meet the requirements? Wastewater discharge=0.45m3/s, river flow rate= 8.5 m3/s, river cross-sectional area=19m2, dissolved Oxygen concentration in the wastewater= 0.2mg/l, dissolved oxygen content of the river upstream = 8.1mg/l, saturation dissolved oxygen concentration at 20 C= 9.0 mg/l, BOD concentration in wastewater = 85 mg/l, BOD concentration upstream in the river= 0.2 mg/l, BOD decay constant = 0.2 d-1, and the reaeration constant for the river= 0.4 d-1.
A clean river flows at a rate of 10 cfs. A discharge pipe containing 100 mg/L of nitrate empties into the river at a flow rate of 10 L/s. Assume nitrate naturally degrades at a rate of 0.1/min (first order kinetics). What is the nitrate concentration (mg/L) just downstream of the discharge point?
i). A town produces 8 million litre of sewage per day. BOD of sewage is 260 mg/L, it is to be discharged into a river flowing at a rate of 0.2 m³/s and it's BOD is 5 mg/L. Find out the BOD of river after mixing? [Assume mixing is instantaneous]
The town of Viracocha discharges 17,360 m³/day of treated wastewater into the Pachacamac Creek. The treated wastewater has a BOD5 of 12 mg/L and a BOD decay constant, k, of 0.12/day at 10 °C. Pachacamac Creek has a flow rate of 0.43 m³/s and an ultimate BOD, Lo, of 5 mg/L. The DO of the river is 6.5 mg/L and the DO of the wastewater is 1.0 mg/L. Compute the DO and the initial ultimate BOD, Lo, after mixing. Draw the Mass Balance Diagram.
An action will release DO and BOD to a large low velocity river at a location where the existing conditions of the river have already been determined. Assess the impacted conditions (as a result of this action) at a location 10,000 m down-river from where the action releases the pollution. River: Q = 2 m³/s, A=1m², T = 15 degC, L = 5 mg/L, DO = DOsat Source1: Q = 0.5 m³/s, T = 25 degC, L = 100 mg/L, DO = 1 mg/L
Biological waste water treatment is the exclusive territory of microorganisms, higher organisms such as animals and plants are not capable of treating wastewater. 1.True 2.False
You are constructing a sewage lagoon with a 3,100 m3/day inlet/outlet flow rate. You must attain a BOD outflow load of 12 mg/L given a BOD inlet load of 26 mg/L. BOD has a half-life of 2.4 days.What volume is needed for the lagoon and how long would it take for the output BOD concentration to reach 1 ppm if freshwater started to replace the wastewater that was previously entering the lagoon?
