• Waterworks of a town treat 35 x 106 litres/day. The water is treated by coagulation-sedimentation tanks. The quantity of filter alum is consumed at 20 mg/litres of water. If the alkalinity of the raw water is equivalent to 4.5 mg/litre of CaCO3, determine the quantity of filter alum and the quick lime (containing 80% of CaO) required per month by the water works. Molecular weights are given as [Ca = 40, C = 12, S = 32, 0 = 16, Al = 27 and H=1]

18. Determine the lime and soda ash dose, in mg/L as CaCO3, to soften the following water to a final hardness of 90.0 mg/L as CACO3. If the price of lime, purchased as CaO, is $61.70 per megagram (Mg), and the price of soda ash, purchased as NazCO3 is $172.50 per Mg, what is the annual chemical cost of treating 0.050 m'/s of this water? Assume the lime is 90% pure and the soda ash is 97% pure. The ion concen- trations reported below are all mg/L as CaCO3. Ca2+ =137.0 Mg HCO, =197.0 =9.0 %3D 2+ = 40.0 %3D CO2
The wastewater from a synthetic textile manufacturing plant is discharged to a municipal treatment plant for processing with domestic wastewater. The characteristics of the synthetic textile wastewater are 1500 mg/L BOD, 2000 mg/L SS, 30 mg/L nitrogen, and no phosphorus. The characteristics of the domestic wastewater are 200 mg/L BOD, 240 mg/L SS, 35 mg/L nitrogen, and 7 mg/L phosphorus. Find the BOD, SS of the mixture. The ratio of flow rate is domestic/textile = 4/1

A sewage treatment plant contains fourteen standard rate tricking filters with diameter 37.8m filters, and two secondary Jarifiers with diameter 18.2m. Calculate the maximum allowable output capacity of the treatment plant using the following data: . BOD of raw sewage 300 mg/L. . BOD removal in primary sedimentation 30% . BOD effluent 35 mg/L • Overall efficiency of BOD removal 90%

PROBLEM #1 A stream receives a waste outfall which results in oxygen at saturation levels when mixed. The initial condition right after entry of the waste creates a BOD5 of 40 mg/l. KBOD is 0.3/day and KO2 is 1.3/ day. The stream temperature is 12 degrees centigrade. In terms of travel time when does the maximum DO sag occur? What is the minimum DO concentration in the river at the maximum sag point? If the average stream velocity is 3 feet per minute, what is the downstream location of the DO sag minimum relative to the location of the waste stream? Use the relevant equations provided in the textbook to solve this problem. Hint: Consider carefully what was stated in class about the BOD input for this type of problem.
