Mechanical Processes

In civil engineering, the materials have to undergo a series of manufacturing processes before using them in construction and structural applications. These manufacturing processes form the foundation stone of mechanical processes. Some of the civil engineering materials such as bars, metallic beams, metallic columns, surveying equipment, earthmovers, overhead cranes, structural and construction components, and even cement that is the most fundamental construction component need to undergo different manufacturing processes before they are ready to use. These processes are mechanical.

The 750-bed Associated Center of Medical Excellence (ACME) Hospital has a small activated sludge plant to treat its wastewater. The average daily Medical Center discharge is 1,250 L per day per bed, and the average soluble BOD5 after primary settling is 450 mg/L. The aeration tank has effective liquid dimensions of 10.0 m wide by 25.0 m long by 3.5 m deep. The plant operating parameters are as follows: MLVSS = 2,750 mg/L MLSS = 1.25 (MLVSS) Settled sludge volume after 30 min = 250 mL/LDetermine the following: aeration period, F/M ratio, SVI, solids concentration in return sludge.

A complete-mixed activated sludge process (CMAS) is to be designed to treat 6.0 MGD of primary effluent having a BOD5 of 190 mg/L. The requirement is that the effluent BOD5 and TSS concentrations be 20 mg/L or less on an annual average basis. The following biokinetic coefficient obtained at 15°C: Y = 0.6 mg VSS/mg BOD5, k = 2.85 d-1, Ks = 70 mg/L BOD5, and kd = 0.041 d-1. Assume that the MLVSS concentration in the aeration basin is maintained at 2,500 mg/L. Determine: a. The minimum MCRT (d) b. The MCRT necessary to meet the requirement (d) c. The volume of the aeration basin (ft3)
