The solids content of a stream water sample is to be determined. The total solids content is determined by placing a portion of the sample into a porcelain evaporating dish, drying the sample. at 105°c, and igniting the residue by placing the dried sample in a muffle furnace at 105°C. The following masses are recorded: mans of empty dish: 50.326 g mass of dish and ignited solids: 50,383 g • mass of dish and sample: 118.400 g mass of dish and dry solids: 50.437 g • a) The total solids content is: b) The total volatile solids content is: c) The fixed solids content is:

A wastewater treatment use an activated sludge process for secondary treatment of 10000 m3/day for municipal wastewater. After primary clarification, The BOD is 150 mg/L, and it is desired to have not more than 7 mg/L of soluble BOD in the effluent. The mixed liquor has a concentration of 3000 mg/L and underflow solids concentration is 12,000 mg /L from the secondary clarifier. The kinetic constants from a bench scale treatability study are Y=0.5 and Kd=0.05 day-1. Assume the cell residence time is 10 days. Determine: a. The volume of the activated sludge tank & the hydraulic residence time. b. The sludge production rate & the sludge wasting flow rate. c. The sludge recycle ratio and recycle flow rate. d.
