A truck dumped industrial waste into a pit. They found the truck 3 days ago with a pure pool of waste. Your lab finds the BOD5 of this waste to be 80 mg/L with a k=0.1/day. What was the waste source? Here are the 3 nearby suspects: Winery BOD ultimate = 275 mg/L Vinegar manufacturer BOD ultimate = 80 mg/L Pharmaceutical BOD ultimate = 200 mg/L
A centrifuge dewaters digested sludge from ananaerobic digester. Pertinent performance data are; raw sludge feed rate to the anaerobicdigester = 60,000 lb/day on a dry solids basis, digester suspended solids removalefficiency = 55 percent, suspended solids concentration in digested sludge fed to thecentrifuge = 5.0 percent by weight, centrifuge cake solids concentration = 30 percent byweight, centrifuge solids capture = 90 percent. Sketch a process flow schematic of the system showing both the digester andcentrifuge and all flowing fluid streams, clearly identify the appropriate control surface(s)for mass balance analyses, and then determine;(i) dewatered sludge mass flow rate (lb/day)(ii) centrate flow rate (gal/day)(iii) centrate suspended solids concentration (mg/l).

Determine leachate generated in a cell in a 12-month period. You may assume that: -Percolation through the cover is 15in -Water consumed by waste decomposition is negligible (Life 1 contains mostly fresh waste) -Water loss as water vapor in landfill gas is negligible (again due to fresh waste) -Initial moisture content in fresh waste = 0.20 -Weight of waste in the lift = 3000 lb/yd² -Weight of cover = 1500 lb/yd² -The following sketch depicts water in and out of a waste lift. Water consumption by waste decomposition PER or leachate from above Water stored in waste Leachate generated Water loss as water vapor in landfill gas
