As its relates to Jamaica answer the following, also include references. 1.How relevant are NEPA’s concerns about alkalinity, acidity and oxygen levels? 2.Rainfall is naturally somewhat acidic, since pure water in equilibrium with atmosphericcarbon dioxide forms a weak solution of carbonic Acid, with a pH of ~5.6. How is AcidRain (pH<5.6) naturally countered in fresh surface water bodies? 3.What is the inherent danger when this counteractive measure is in effect?

This is a cross-section of a groundwater situation. Label the location of the: Zone of Saturation, Zone of Aeration, Water Table, and Perched Water Table. Examine the diagram and tell me if the Winiecke River will gain water from the groundwater system or will it contribute water to the groundwater system.
The quality of a surface water will be assessed for its suitability for drinking,irrigation, cooling-heating, washing-cleaning, swimming, and aquatic life (fish living) based on water quality parameters given in Table 1. Examine the surface water quality for the potential usages given above. Please providescientifical answers why the surface water is or is not suitable for such each potential use.
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
Sewerage waste was discharged into Mulungushi River from Iris lodge which is located along the banks of the river as they had a problem with a septic tank since it was full. This problem normally occurs in the rain season and this resulted in a mixture having DO of about 9mg/L. The average occupancy rate monthly is about 70%. The septic tanks are emptied after every two weeks. After 5 days, DO dropped to 3mg/L when ZEMA carried out the analysis of the water sample in the river. The reaction constant rate k was found to be 0.22 day ^(-1) and the oxygen consumed in the first five days was 200mg/L. a) How do suspended solids and chemicals affect the surrounding environment? Give two examples. b) What would be the ultimate carbonaceous BOD? c) What will be the remaining oxygen demand after 5 days? d) What advise can you give to the to the lodge owner as a Civil Engineer?
A completely mixed treatment lagoon of 2500 m3 is designed to accommodate aninput flow of 35 L/s of a nonconservative pollutant with a concentration of 157 mg/L and a rateconstant of 0.68 d-1.a) Derive the appropriate reactor equation and determine the pollutant concentration atthe exit of the lagoon. If the provincial limit for release into waterways is 90 mg/L, doesthe effluent meet the limit?b) If the limit is not met, what would you suggest changing and/or implementing? Providetwo options.
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
Question 2 5 points The following is relevant water demand information for the town of Goodborough for the design year of 2050: Design Population = 10000 Annual average per capita water demand = 250 L/d Assume a water supply system of Type C is considered for the town, as shown below: Elevated Storage WTP HLP LP Smce Community camouners) Assuming that BOTH equalization storage AND fire storage provided are sufficient, determine the following to meet the water needs of the community in the design year, as per Ontario guidelines A) Design capacity of the WTP (in ML/d; ignore losses) B) Design capacity of Conduit III (in ML/d)

A livestock and crop farmer uses some acidic wastewater to irrigate his soil before growing crops as he believes it kills all the insects and deters pests. Some of the runoff fills a drinking basin for his livestock. Advise him on the risks of using the wastewater in his operation and find a sustainable farming practice to reduce pests on his site without the use of pesticide.
