A centrifuge dewaters digested sludge from ananaerobic digester. Pertinent performance data are; raw sludge feed rate to the anaerobicdigester = 60,000 lb/day on a dry solids basis, digester suspended solids removalefficiency = 55 percent, suspended solids concentration in digested sludge fed to thecentrifuge = 5.0 percent by weight, centrifuge cake solids concentration = 30 percent byweight, centrifuge solids capture = 90 percent. Sketch a process flow schematic of the system showing both the digester andcentrifuge and all flowing fluid streams, clearly identify the appropriate control surface(s)for mass balance analyses, and then determine;(i) dewatered sludge mass flow rate (lb/day)(ii) centrate flow rate (gal/day)(iii) centrate suspended solids concentration (mg/l).

A wastewater treatment plant is operated at a steady state DO concentration of 1.5 mg/L. If the temperature of the wastewater is measured at 10 °C, a= 0.8 and B = 0.95 and the KLa reported by the aerator manufacturer at 20°C in tap water is 5 hrt, estimate the oxygen uptake rate (in mg/L-min) in the aeration basin. You can assume 0=1.024. If the aerator's oxygen transfer efficiency is 24%, what would be the mass of air (kg) required per hour in a 8500 m³ tank? What volumetric flow rate would you have to supply (m³/hr)? 3.
The discharge from the Renenutet sugar beet plant causes the DO at the critical point to fall to 4.0 mg/L. The Meskhenet Stream has a negligible BOD and the initial deficit after the river and wastewater have mixed is zero. What DO will result if the concentration of the waste(L_w) is reduced by 50%? Assume that the flows remain the same and that the saturation value of DO is 10.83 mg/L in both cases.
An anaerobic digester (AD) is designed with the following data. Organic loading rate 1.0 kg VSS/m³.day VSS load 120 kg/day (i). (ii). Estimate the volume of the AD. If the VSS is 12 kg/m³, estimate the retention time.
2. Cadmium is a pollutant of concern in mining. The initial concentration of cadmium in a mining wastewater (also called acid mine drainage) is 0.1 mg/L, and the EPA Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) is 0.005 mg/L. What must the pH be so that the wastewater does not exceed the EPA MCL? Given: Cd(OH)2 → Cď²* + OH (unbalanced) K, = 5.33 x 1015 Cd(OH)2: Cd2+ = 112.4 g/mol 17.0 g/mol = 146.4 g/mol OH- =

A waste with a 5-day BOD (BOD)=200mg/L and k = 0.1 day¹ is discharged to a river at a rate of 1 m/s. The river has flow rate of 9 m/s and a background ultimate BOD (Lo) of 2 mg/L upstream of the discharge. (a) Calculate the ultimate BOD (Le) of the waste. (b) Furthermore, assuming instantaneous mixing after discharge, calculate Lo of the river water after it has received the waste. Ans.: (a) Ultimate BOD of wastewater = 508.3 mg/L, (b) Ultimate BOD of river water after discharge of waste-52.63 mg/L.
You need to soften water at a 20 MGD potable water treatment facility using lime (Ca(OH)2) and soda ash (Na2CO3).
