Concept explainers

Storm Sewers and Detention

The storm drains system transports rainwater or stormwater and other runoff from roads, parking lots, and roof downpipes directly to nearby creeks, rivers, or the sea without any treatment.

1) Design a flocculation basin for water at 10°C flowing at Q = 49,200 m3/day for a typical process.train in a drinking water treatment plant. The basin shall be a cross-flow, horizontal-shaft, paddlewheel type with an average velocity gradient of G = 26.7 sec−1, a detention time τ = 45 minutes,and a Gτ value of 50,000 to 100,000. Tapered flocculation shall be used in three compartments ofequal depth in series. Compartments shall be separated by slotted, redwood baffle fences andhave a level basin floor.

A city has a current total population of 40,000 residents. The estimated design population is 55,000 at the end of a design period of 20 years. Determine the design average, peak, and minimum flow rates. Use the following data. Current daily average flow to the wastewater treatment plant Daily average I/I flow Hourly peak I/I flow = 18,400 m³/d = 80 Lpcd = 180 Lpcd A new junior college will attract 1500 nonresident students per day. The daily average wastewater flow is 50 Lpcd. A new industry will add a daily average flow of 900 m /d for a 24 h/d operation. An hourly peak flow of 1500 m’/d will occur during the day shift. The plant will be shut down one day a week. It is expected that 10% per capita reduction in wastewater flow will occur with the future population growth. The minimum to average flow ratio is 0.4 for the current dry weather wastewater flow.
i have to submit this question ASAP can you please help me with it ? thank you
You are responsible for calculating the peak discharge for a culvert design in a smallwatershed in Washington, DC. The watershed area is 4 acres and currently has 30 % of its area ofindustrial (heavy areas) and 70 % of residential (single –family areas). The design manual suggestsyou design your culvert for a 10 return period. The watershed has a concentration time of2 hours. Calculate:a) What is the design peak flow?b) What is the impact of the runoff coefficient (C) range on your design?c) After you implemented your project, the residential area was entirely converted toindustrial areas. Would that affect you design? If yes, by how much?
The sewage from an area of 400.79 or take it 400.8 acres is to be carried by a circular sewer at a velocity not less than 3.0 fps. Manning's n = 0.013. The population density is 16 persons per acre. Considering average water use is 160 gpcd of which 70% flows as sewage water. Find the maximum hourly and minimum hourly flows Determine the pipe size required to handle these flows and the required slope.
