Q- A river has a flow of 1000 million litres per day (MLD). BOD5 of 5 mg/litre and Dissolved Oxygen (DO) level of 8 mg/litre before receiving the wastewater discharge at a location. For the existing environmental conditions, the saturation DO level is 10 mg/litre in the river. Wastewater discharge of 100 MLD with the BOD5 of 200 mg/litre and DO level of 2mg/litre falls at that location. Assuming complete mixing of wastewater and river water, the immediate DO deficit (in mg/litre, round off to two decimal places), is
A conventional Wastewater Treatment Plant receives an average daily wastewater flow of 38,000 m2/d. Two circular primary clarifiers, operating in parallel, will treat the flow. Assume that a peripheral effluent weir is used for each clarifier. Consider a detention time of 2 hours and water depth of 4 meters for each clarifier. Determine: a. The diameter (m) of each primary clarifier. b. The weir loading rate (m3/d . m) for each clarifier at average daily flow. c. The expected (not calculated) BODs and Suspended Solids removal efficiencies (%) at an average daily flow rate.

Water flows in a horizontal, rectangular channel initially 10 feet wide and 2 feet deep. The initial velocity is 6 ft/s. This flow encounters downstream a simultaneous downward step and constriction. No energy losses are associated with these changes in channel configuration. a. What is the specific discharge, q: i. Upstream (for w= 10 feet)? ii. Downstream (for w = 6 feet)? b. What specific energy, E, is associated with the flow as initially specified (at the upstream location)? c. What is the minimum energy needed to pass the full discharge at the downstream location? d. What is the height (Az) of the smallest downward step necessary for the upstream flow conditions to remain as specified?

How can I calculate the water level in a grit chamber at average flow and at peak hourly flow. The effluent from the tank flows over a fiberglass, sharp-crested weir that is set at elevation 136.00 ft above sea level (ASL). The average daily flow rate is 2.6 MGD. Assume that all flow must pass through one grit chamber. The dimensions of the grit chamber are 9 ft wide, 30 ft long, and 10.5 ft deep (water depth). The weir extends across the full width of the chamber and find the hydraulic retention time of the grit chamber. HRT at average flow = ______ minutesand HRT at peak hourly flow = ______ minutes
You are responsible for calculating the peak discharge for a culvert design in a smallwatershed in Washington, DC. The watershed area is 4 acres and currently has 30 % of its area ofindustrial (heavy areas) and 70 % of residential (single –family areas). The design manual suggestsyou design your culvert for a 10 return period. The watershed has a concentration time of2 hours. Calculate:a) What is the design peak flow?b) What is the impact of the runoff coefficient (C) range on your design?c) After you implemented your project, the residential area was entirely converted toindustrial areas. Would that affect you design? If yes, by how much?
