Cement dust is characterized by very fine particulates. The exhaust gas temperatures from a cement kiln are very hot. Which of the following air pollution control devices would appear to be appropriate? Explain the reason.  a. baghouse b. electrostatic precipitator c. venturi scrubber

PV laundry facility uses 1 m/min and wants to design an exchange process to remove hardness from the water. The municipal water that they use contains 80 mg/L of calcium and 36.6 mg/L of Magnesium. Total hardness should be reduced to 80 mg/L of CaCO3. The resin has a Total Hardness (TH) capacity of 60 kg TH/m³ of resin, and the recommended hydraulic loading rate is 0.5 m³/m².min. a) What is the water flow rate (m³/d) that needs to be treated? b) What is the total daily resin volume (m³) required to soften the water? c) What is the area of the exchanger needed?

One common issue with air strippers is scaling due to hardness in the water. Please design an excess lime pre-treatment step to remove the water hardness (determine the softening chemical addition rates [mass/hour] of Ca(OH)2 and Na2CO3) if the water chemistry is as follows [CO2] = 5 mg/l, [Ca2+] = 50 mg/L, [Mg2+] = 6.1 mg/L, [Na+] = 23 mg/L, [Alkalinity] = 150 mg/L and [SO42-] = 24 mg/L

In a general manner, explain how the rate of heat generation progresses during the formation of the concrete crystal matrix formed from cement paste molecules.  Be thorough in answering this question
