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?
Advection, diffusion, and reaction in a channel Approximately 50 m3 of an agricultural pesticide with an initial concentration of 1.6 × 105 mol/m3 have been spilled into a stream following a train derailment. You have been called in to predict the aqueous concentrations of this pesticide at various points along the stream, and the mass that will be delivered to a lake with critical habitat 70 km downstream. You look up the main component of the pesticide and see that it degrades in water (due to hydrolysis reaction) with a half-life of 1.9 h. The discharge rate of the stream is 75,000 L/min. It has an average depth of 0.3 m and an average width of 1.2 m. a. Calculate the maximum concentration (in mol/L) of the pesticide that will be observed at a town 10 km downstream and at the point where the stream reaches the lake, 70 km downstream. Assume a sheer velocity of 0.40 m/s. b. Plot the concentration of this pesticide entering the town and the lake with time. Care should be taken when…
The base of a river in in contact with the top of an aquifer. A truck carrying bags of powdered cyanide is on a bridge crossing the river when a large bump causes one of the bags to fall into the river. The water in the river suddenly becomes polluted by the cyanide with a concentrations of 6.78 mg/L. The aquifer has an average linear ground water velocity of 0.256 m/day. Laboratory analyses data indicates that longitudinal dispersivity can be found through the equation: a = 0.86(log Ls)² where Ls is the length of the straight line path between two points along the path of transport. Find the longitudinal dispersion 108 m downstream from the bridge. Assume that the cyanide solute has a diffusion coefficient of 3.6 x 10 -5 m²/s and the aquifer has a coefficient related to tortuosity (o) equal to 0.8. Find the coefficient of hydrodynamic dispersion.
