Can you please help me in answering this question. thank you A river, flowing at 1.5 m3/s, is polluted with the pesticide permethrin and flows into a lake (100 m x 100 m 2.5 m). The steady state concentration of permethrin leaving the lake is 1.4 ppm and the average cross-sectional area of the river is 2.7 m2. The half-life of permethrin in this environment is 19 hrs. What is the concentration of permethrin entering the lake and what distance downstream of the outlet would the concentration be less than 1 ppm?

You are treating 10 million gallons per day (MGD) of water with alum at a dosage of 50.0 mg/L. Alum is available as a hydrated salt Al2(SO4)3.16H2O. Determine:(a) The monthly alum dosage required in metric tons/month (1 metric ton = 1000 kg)(b) If you assume that each equivalent of alum added to the water consumes 1 equivalent of alkalinity, determine the alkalinity consumed by alum addition in milliequivalents/L (meq/L)(c) Given that the raw water contained 30 mg/L as CaCO3 of alkalinity, is the alkalinity sufficient? What would happen if the alkalinity is inadequate?
Sea water can be desalinated by using reverse osmosis. A plant treats 4,000 m3 /day of feedwater containing 27,000 ppm of salinity. The product salinity is 300 ppm. What is theproduct recovery (desalinated water) based on the volume of the feed? The salinity of thebrine output is 52,000 ppm.
A county generates 1 million ton of municipal solid waste after recycling every year. The town is considering whether the waste is landfilled or incinerated. For disposal of the waste generated in one year, which option is better to produce less volume of greenhouse gases (GHGs)? Which option is better to have less greenhouse effect? We assume that the waste has a chemical formula of C68H111O50 Decomposition of solid waste in incineration is shown in the following reaction. CaHbOcNd+4a+b+2d-c2O2=aCO2↑+b2H2O+dNO↑ 2) water produced from the reaction(s) is not GHG because it is liquid water).

A lake has 5×10^9 m³ of water with a DO concentration of 7.5 mg/l. 12000 m³ of an effluent with 120 mg/l BOD is discharged into this lake and 70% of the organic matter is decomposed in 7 days. Find out the DO concentration in the lake after 7 days.
You are the lead engineer on a wastewater treatment plant with a biological reactor. You are required todetermine how much biomass will be produced in kg per day in your plant. A junior engineer determines theultimate BOD of the incoming waste as 600 mg/l, with a decay constant of 0.1/d. The incoming substrateconcentration used should be the five-day BOD. The incoming flow is 75 m3/d however there are lossesupstream of the plant accounting for 15 m3/d of the flow. The target BOD discharged from the plant is 25mg/l. the kinetic constants for the system are Ks = 90 mg/L BOD5, kd = 0.2 d-1, μm = 1.5 d-1, and Y = 0.6 mg VSS/mgBOD5. Include a sketch to illustrate the biological reactor and its incoming flows.

A groundwater source is contaminated by Chemical X at a concentration of 32 μg/L. You are hired as an environmental engineer to decrease that concentration to 4 μg/L by adding activated carbon. According to the literature, the Freundlich isotherm coefficients for activated carbon are Kp = 0.08 and n = 2.6 for concentrations in mg/L. Calculate the mass of activated carbon (in mg) needed for 9 L of water.
