How many pounds per day (lbs/day) of lime and soda ash need to be delivered daily to a plant treating groundwater with the following characteristics (do not worry about adding any safety factor, even though you would in the real world): Calcium Carbonate Hardness (CaCH) = 200 mg/L as Calcium Carbonate Magnesium Non-Carbonate Hardness = 100 mg/L as Calcium Carbonate (Use soda ash; carbon dioxide is not an option) Alkalinity= 200 mg/L as Calcium Carbonate Flow Treated = 10 MGD The answers are expressed in units of lbs/day with lime first followed by soda ash O 4,800 and 3,100 O 22,600 and 31,000 O 15,000 and 7,400 O 18,500 and 8,800
Note: Read the question carefully and give me right solution according to the question. I want clear solution with clear steps. A water contains 38.50 mg/L as CaCO3 of carbon dioxide, 288.00 mg/L as CaCO3 of Ca2+ and 53.00 mg/L as CaCO3 of Mg2+. All of the hardness is carbonate hardness. Using the stoichiometry of the lime soda ash softening equations, what is the daily sludge production (in dry weight, kg/day) if the plant treats water at a rate of 56.00 MGD? Assume that the effluent water contains no carbon dioxide, 30.0 mg/L as CaCO3 of Ca2+ and 10.0 mg/L as CaCO3 of Mg2+. Be sure to calculate the mass of CaCO3 and Mg(OH)2 sludge produced each day.

Lake Bonaventure is a lake fed by the Saint Croix River. The Acme smeting company discharges the heavy metal nickel into the lake. The easy way to model the concentration of nickel is to assume the lake is well mixed. It isn’t. The lake has a mean depth of 30m, and during the summer a surface epilimnion of 5m develops, which breaks down for the winter. (no calculations are required to answer the questions below) (A) Given what you know about the hydrology of lakes, what differences in concentration would there be if the smelter discharges at the surface or at a depth of 30m? (B) How would concentrations vary in the lake throughout the year? (C) What if you factor in the fact that the flow of the Saint Croix River is less during the winter?
