A surface water treatment plant treats a 6,000 L/day flow with
alum coagulation, identified by the following stoichiometric
reaction:
Al2(SO4)3 ∙ 14 H2O +
6HCO3- ↔ 2Al(OH)3 (s) + 6
CO2 + 14 H2O + 3
SO42-

A water treatment plant with an average flow of Q = 0.044
m3/second treats its water with alum (Al2 (SO4)3 • 14H2O) at a dose
of 25 mg/L. Alum coagulation is used to reduce the concentration of
natural organic matter and reduce the alkalinity of water according
to the equation given below. Find the total mass of alkalinity
consumed. Assume all alkalinity to be bicarbonate. (10 points)

The amount of 38*10 6 gallons/day of raw water enters a water
treatment plant to produce potable drinking water. The water source
has high turbidity and hardness. The plant’s engineers have decided
to use alum to address the turbidity problem and use other
appropriate techniques to reduce the hardness. They performed jar
tests and an optimum dose for alum was determined as 14.7
mg/L.
a) Calculate the amount of alkalinity consumed (mg/L as
CaCO3)
b) Calculate the amount of required...

A 50-mgpd (million gallons per day) water treatment plant was
proposed in 2017 for Ureka. A 60- mgpd plant using the same
treatment process was built in 2010 in Vancouver for $50,000,000.
Given the following additional information and assumptions:
Poor site condition in Vancouver required an additional
$3,000,000 for foundations, which is not anticipated for Ureka.
Assume the power sizing size exponent = 0.67.
Assume inflation will persist at an average 5% per annum.
Assume the location index for Vancouver...

A wastewater treatment plant that treats wastewater to secondary
treatment standards uses a primary sedimentation process followed
by an activated sludge process composed of aeration tanks and a
secondary clarifiers.
This problem focuses on the activated sludge process.
The activated sludge process receives a flow of 15 million
gallons per day (MGD).
The primary sedimentation process effluent has a BOD5
concentration of 180 mgBOD5/L (this concentration is
often referred as S). Before flowing into the activated sludge
process, the primary...

Problem #3: Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Stream
Quality
A wastewater
treatment plant designed for a community of 45,000 people has a
flow of 100 gal/person/day and a BOD5 loading of 0.2
lb/person/day. The upstream characteristics of the receiving waters
are:
stream flow rate =
20 cfs and BOD5 = 2 mg/L
The water quality
standards require the in-stream BOD5 to be less than 7
mg/L in this stretch of the river.
The minimum BOD
