(a) Why control of pH is considered important and what are the main sources of acidity and alkalinity in natural waters? (b) A 100 – ml sample require 20.2ml of 0.02 NH₂SO4 to reach the phenolphthalein end point, and a total of 25.6ml to reach the Methyl orange end point. Calculate total alkalinity and indicate what fraction corresponds to hydroxides, carbonates and bicarbonates (c) The uptake for a water supply system is located at a location named X3 (see Figure); upstream X3, there are two villages that discharge raw sewage at X1 and X2, and new wastewater treatment systems are needed in both villages in order to reduce the concentration of BOD. Calculate the current concentration of BOD at X3, and the required removal efficiency (% BOD removal) in the new wastewater treatment works (WWTW) to control BOD discharges at X1 and X2, so the BOD at X3 ≤ 10mg/L.

An environmental analyst wants to determine the amount of BOD in Pasig River. Prior to incubation, the sample was diluted to 30:300. The laboratory analysis shows that the initial DO of the sample is 20 mg/L and after 5 days this drops to 15 mg/L. If the BOD5 limit for Pasig River is 7 mg/L, determine which of the following statements is true. a) The BOD5 conforms with the standard, therefore the water is not polluted. b) The BOD5 is way below the allowable limit, therefore the water is polluted. c) The BOD5 is exactly within the allowable limit, therefore the water is not polluted. d) The BOD5 exceeded the allowable limit, therefore the water is polluted.

A river with a flowrate (Q) of 850 cfs (cubic feet per second) has a total dissolved solids (TDS, think table salt in water) concentration of 55 mg/L. An industry discharges a water stream with a TDS concentration of 2,500 mg/L into the river and the two streams are well mixed. If the maximum TDS concentration allowed in the river is 250 mg/L, the system is at steady state, and there are no other TDS inputs, answer the following: a) What is the maximum allowable wastewater flow from the industry (in cfs)? b) If the 250 mg/L TDS level is met downstream, what percent of the TDS comes from the industry?

A municipal wastewater treatment plant is installing completely mixed activated sludge to meet their NPDES permit of 15 mg/L BOD5. The mixed liquor concentration is 1,000 mg/L MLVSS. The wastewater flowrate going to secondary treatment is 0.170 m3/s and the BOD5 in that stream is 110 mg/L. Laboratory measurements of the growth constants show: Ks = 60 mg/L BOD5, um = 2.8 d-1, kd = 0.05 d-1, Y = 0.73 mg MLVSS/mg BOD5. Determine the required volume of the aeration tank.
