A Reverse Osmosis treatment plant is treating salty water on a farm and operates 24 hours a day. It has the capacity to treat 10000L/day of dirty water. The waste stream from the RO plant, which is 50% of the treatment capacity, is sent to an evaporation pond that is not properly lined and thus has salty waste stream infiltrating the ground below at a rate of 0.022*t m3/day. Assume no evaporation or rainfall and other sources or sinks from the pond. Over 365 days, what should be the minimum size of the pond so that the salty water doesn't overflow into the neighbouring paddocks? Use a spreadsheet to plot a curve of V of pond vs time (day). Give your answer to the nearest cubic meter with no decimal points.

Food square kitchen waste 5m3/hr; Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) is 50g/L whichoperates 8hrs per dayb. CIH 5m3/hr kitchen waste; TDS is 20mg/L which operates 4hrs per dayc. PCH 20m3/day diluted laboratory waste ; TDS = 40mg/L (1)Determine the volume of wastewater which taal lake can still be contained withoutrainfall.(2)During operational hours a heavy rain fall, the rain gauge reading is 1.5m. Will the taalLake overflow? What is the volume of water that will over flow?(3). Compute the TDS concentration of the overflow.
As an operator of a wastewater treatment facility, you have learned that your plant runs well at an SRT (based on MLVSS (X) in the aeration basin) of 12 days. If today’s MLVSS (X) concentration is 2,700 mg/L and the RAS (Xr) concentration is 5,500 mg/L, how many L of sludge should you waste from the secondary clarifier today? Other design conditions: Average influent flow = 12,000 m3/d Influent soluble BOD = 150 mg/L Required effluent TSS = 30 mg/L Aeration tank Volume = 1,000 m3
For an activated sludge basin with a flow rate of 500 L/s if the influent BOD5 = 100 mg/L, the MLVSS = 3000 mg/L and the volume of the aeration basin = 766100 gallons Find the F/M ratio If the WAS X= 10000 mg/L, find the WAS flowrate (m3/d)
A wastewater treatment plant discharges 2.16x107 L/hr of treated effluent with an ultimate BOD of 22.0 mg/L and dissolved oxygen concentration of 5.0 mg/L to a river. Upstream of the waste discharge, the river has a flow of 9.0 m3/s, an ultimate BOD of 10.0 mg/L, and dissolved oxygen concentration of 7.0 mg/L. Both the river and effluent are at 20°C. After the river and effluent mix, the river flows at a velocity of 0.13 m/s and has a depth of 1.8 m. The deoxygenation rate constant for the waste is 0.45 day-1. A fish hatchery is located 9.6 km downstream of the waste discharge. The hatchery requires 5.0 mg/L DO for healthy fish growth and reproduction. Is the hatchery requirement being met? show all work

Dear I need solution for this problem also The system of two basins shown in the picture, full flow stream 3785x1000 l/day in which the concentration of non-conservative pollutant is 20mg/l. The rate of decomposition of a non-conservative pollutant is 0.3/day. The volume of the first pool is 18925x1000 l and the second one is 11355x1000 l. Assuming complete mixing in each basin, determine the concentration of the non-conservative pollutant that leaves the individual basins. Please se attachemnt . Thank You very much
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.
