Answer #1

1. INLET : RAW WATER IS COLLECTED FROM NEAREST WATER RESOURCE (POND/LAKE/RIVER/GROUND WATER)

2. SCREENING : WATER IS FILTERED FOR ANY FLOATING DEBRIS, IF ANY

3. COAGULATION : CHEMICALS ARE ADDED IN WATER FOR OTHER FLOATING PARTICLES TO SETTLE QUICKLY

4. FLOCCULATION : THE WATER AFTER ADDING COAGULANT IS MIXED FOR FLOCS FORMATION

5.SEDIMENTATION: THE FLOCKS FORMED ARE ALLOWED TO SETTLE

6. FILTRATION: THE WATER IS FILTERED TO CAPTURE MINUTE FLOATING PARTICLE

7. DISINFECTION: DISINFECTANT IS ADDED TO KILL ANY HARMFUL VIRUS/BACTERIA PRESENT IN THE WATER

8. STORAGE: THE WATER IS THEN STORED IN STORAGE PONDS OR WATER TANKS

9. OUTLET: THE STORED WATER IS DISTRIBUTED TO THE HOUSEHOLDS, etc...

A rectangular horizontal-flow sedimentation basin in a conventional water treatment plant has been designed to treat a flow of 50,000 m3 /day. It has a length = 80 m, width = 20 m, and depth = 3.6 m. For this problem, assume temperature = 20 °C (density of water = 103 kg/m3 and viscosity = 10-3 kg/m·s) and laminar flow. a. What is the hydraulic detention time? Does this meet the typical criteria for this type of sedimentation basin? b....

Draw a neat treatment flow chart for a municipal wastewater treatment. Treated wastewater will be discharged into Red River (Fargo, ND). Please label all units and show flow directions. Also indicate (in the flow chart) where sludge will be generated and chemicals will be added. You can use either a trickling filter or activated sludge process as your biological treatment process. Draw a neat treatment flow chart for a drinking water treatment. Source of water is groundwater (West Fargo, ND)....

a small lake contains 60,000 gal of pure water. There is an inlet stream of pure water into the lake, as well as an outlet stream, both flowing at a rate of 100 gal/min. Suppose someone starts pouring water into the lake at the rate of 10 gal/min that contains 5lbs/gal of a chemical, and they do this for 8 hours. While this happens, the inlet stream of pure water is unchanged, and the outflow rate from the lake remains...

When doing an adiabatic flash calculation for a continuous flow process where a liquid at high pressure is “flashed” to lower pressure to produce a mixture of gas and liquid you know: Inlet: Temperature (T1), Pressure (P1), molar flowrate (F) and mole fractions (zi). Outlet: Pressure (P2) For this adiabatic flash: a) Draw a picture and clearly label the unknown variables b) Write down the equations (in terms of the above variables) that you would have to solve in order...

It is desired to absorb ammonia from air into water producing an outlet gas stream with 0.5mol% ammonia. equilibrium data given as y=1.414x in mole fraction. The counter current column has three equilibrium stages. Entering gas stream has a total of 10 kgmole/hr and has 80% mil NH3. Inlet water stream contains 2% mil ammonia. Find required flow rate entering liquid stream and flow rate of all outlet stream.

environmental engineering wastewater treatment. waste water treatment. 1- In a 2 steps cascade aeration, each step increases oxygen concentration from 10 % to 30 % of saturation level. If the initial oxygen concentration is 20 % of saturation level and minimum oxygen is required to be 5 mg/L at the end of aeration, is the system efficient or not? Show your calculations. Inlet water temperature is 15 C (Cs = 10.2 mg/L) 2- Design flocculation tanks (2 tanks, 5 compartments...

You have been retained to design a wastewater treatment plant using a conventional activated sludge process for a town of 40,000 people. The industrial flow contribution to the sewer system is 300,000 gallons per day. Effluent discharge standards require effluent BOD5 and total suspended solids concentration of <10 mg/l. Assume the following design criteria are applicable: Domestic sewage flow = 100 gal/cap/day (including I/I) BOD loading = 0.18 lbs/cap/day TSS loading = 0.20 lbs/cap/day BOD removal in primary = 33%...

A conventional activated sludge plant treating a domestic flow of 150 ML/d is operated at a SRT of 10 d with a MLVSS of 3500 ppm. The activated sludge plant is required to reduce the influent BOD from 200 ppm to less than 10 ppm prior to discharge. The discharge from the aeration basin is clarified, such that the clarifier overflow contains no particulate material and the MLVSS of the recycle stream is 8000 ppm. You are required to determine...
