A wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) discharges its effluent in a river. The regulatory agency wishes to ensure that the DO level five (5) kilometres downstream and beyond from the WWTP is at least equal to 4.2 mg/L. Use the information provided in Table 1.1 to assist the agency in its environmental management.

Design a water treatment plant for a town with a 2020 population of 25000 persons, average population growth rate of 1.5% annually and average PCWC of 120 liters per day. The treatment plant will have a design life of 20 years and expected to start operation in 2024 and will be designed to treat 1.3 times the average water requirement. The source of water supply is a river and the water treatment plant must adequately remove very fine suspended solids and microorganspisms.
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.

Reuse of wastewater for Non-potable urban use (e.g., fire protection, air conditioning, toilet flushing) 3. Describe the treatment technology employed in the case study to meet the water quality requirements for the above reuse option. Case Study: The success of the NEWater proiect has inspired similar initiatives in other countries, such as the Groundwater Replenishment System in Orange County, California, which also uses advanced treatment technologies to purify wastewater for non-potable urban uses
