Hydrogen Energy

Energy is a quantity that cannot be defined, its existence can only be felt. In simple language, if a system possesses energy, it can do a specific kind of work. There are many forms of energy sources which people can use to obtain work. Solar energy, tidal energy, hydroelectric energy, geothermal energy, wind energy are some of the renewable energy sources which are primarily used for the production of electricity.

2. 1 Jar tests have indicated that 80 mg/L of alum are required to coagulate water for drinking water treatment. The source water contains 180 mg/L alkalinity as CaCO3 and 10 mg/L of suspended solids. The treatment plant capacity is 0.5 m³/s. How much alkalinity remains in the water after coagulation?
Poorly treated municipal wastewater is continuously discharged directly into a lake. The discharge from the wastewater plant into the lake occurs at a flow of Qd = 1 m3/hr. The concentration of phosphate (PO43, M = 95 g/mol) in the discharge flow (Cxd) that is decaying with first-order kinetics is 100 mg/L. The lake is a well-mixed water body of 100 m3. (Phosphate is naturally uptaken by algae with a first- order decay rate constant equal to 0.20/day.) The concentration of phosphate in the incoming river (Cx,r) is 10 mg P/L.
