70 m^3 of air flows in an intake airway towards a working section. Before entering the working section 10 m^3/s is drawn off and passed through a filter leaving with a dust concentration of 120p/ml. 50 m^3 is passed through a bulk air cooler leaving with a dust concentration of 100 p/ml. After the remixing of the air streams and before the air enters the working section,the dust count of the mixture is 130p/ml. Calculate the dust concentration of the original 70 m^3/s.

Solve for what is being required. Room dimensions are: LxWxH = 8.50 m, 5.0 m, 3m. Originally, the room had linoleum flooring with an absorption coefficient of 0.03. Two opposite walls were cladded with unglazed bricks with an absorption coefficient of 0.02, the one having the entrance gypsum door (2.1 m X 0.80 m) with 0.05 abs.co.; the other two were just bare concrete with sliding glass window openings of 1.80m x 1.20 m each; the bare concrete with an abs.co. Of 0.31 and the window glass with 0.18, the ceiling, too , had bare concrete as its finish at 500 Hz. The client would like to renovate the space into an acoustical studio room and would like to change the ceiling and the flooring. The ceiling will have a vinyl faced fiberglass panel with an abs.co. of 0.71, and the floor will have mineral fiber tiles with an abs.co. Of 0.66, all at 500 Hz.
Question - There is a small spill of a toxic material on a paved surface of a chemical plant. This spill has width 0.8 ft and a length of 2.5 ft. The wind is a 10 miles per hour in the direction parallel to the length of the spill. Estimate the rate of evaporation in grams per hour. There is no toxin in the air at time 0 and at infinite distance from the spill. Assume air to behave as an ideal gas. Assume the toxic material can be considered an ideal solution with psat = 22 mmHg. MWtoxin = 164.4 g/mol, Ptoxin =1.69 g/cm³, Pair = .001225 g/cm³, Hair= 0.0187 CP, MWair = 28.9 g/mol, Dtoxin,air = 0.0888 cm²/s.
