Solid removal efficiency in a primary settling tank has been measured as %30 which is very low value. Jar tests showed that if 120 mg/L FeCl 3 is added into the wastewater, the solid removal efficiency will be around 75%. Using the data presented below, compute the total amount of sludge produced daily in the primary settling tank in terms of mass and volume. Wastewater flow rate: 8.000 m3 /dayTotal solid concentration: 300 mg/LSolid content of sludge: 4 %Specific gravity of sludge: 1,02 Molecular Weights (g/mole);Ca:40 – C:12 – O:16 – H:1 – S:32– Al:27 – Fe:56 - Cl:35,5 – P:31

Silt-containing wastewater flowing at a rate of 24.2x103 m3/day was fed to a sedimentation tank with dimensions L= 39 m, W= 8m, H=3m The SG of the particles is 2.68. What would be the smallest particle size (in µm) that can be removed from this operation? Assume flow is within Stokes region and that the particles are spherical. The density and viscosity of water is 1000 kg/m3 and 0.001 kg/m-s, respectively.

The BODs of a domestic wastewater sample is considered to be about 200 mg/l and the DO in it is measured as 0 mg/L. The laboratory staff are preparing to set up a BOD test to determine the actual BOD of the sample. The DO of the dilution water was measured to be 9 mg/I. Which of the following volume ratios of (total volume of BOD bottle = 300 mL) / (volume of wastewater sample) would be most appropriate to use in setting up the BOD bottle for incubation? Select one among the following: (a) 20/1; (b) 50/1; (c) 100/1; (d) 500/1. Justify your selection

The following data were obtained in a laboratory study conducted for the determination of the overall volumetric mass transfer coefficient in a packed bed air stripping unit with a diameter of 1 m and a height of 4m equipped with 4 equidistant sampling ports along its height. Contaminated groundwater containing an initial TCE concentration of 230 ug/1 was fed to the stripping column at 1 m³/m²-min. The air to liquid ratio was 100. Based on the data determine Ka (s').
