The water engineer aims at prevention contamination of water supplies at all times. In most small water supply systems, however, economic reasons prevent 24-hour daily water service. This creates a risk of polluted water infiltrating into the pipelines through leaks in pipe joints and service taps. How would the water engineer ensure that the pollution do not pose a health risk to domestic consumption? Give example of factors to consider when selecting the material for the pipe.?

Quite often diversification is the key to success of almost anything we do, and wastewater treatment is no exception. For the following influent wastewater stream identified below, describe an alternative natural wastewater treatment scheme that could be used to treat the wastewater where a combination of nature-based unit processes are use along with the necessary unit operations required for stream discharge. The discharge from the treatment system should have an average BOD5 and TSS less than or equal to 20 mg/L, the ammonia level less than 0.5 mg/L and a dissolved oxygen level greater than 2 mg/L (Texas typical discharge limits into a stream). Do not design the systems, but identify the treatment train (step 1>>step 2>>step 3, etc. where "step # identifies the treatment step, such as the PIP) and then briefly describe what is occurring within each step of your proposed treatment train. Flowrate 1x106 gpd BOD5…

Question # 1 a) Define ‘Disinfection’ and ‘Sterilization’ OR differentiate between them. b) Enlist the different methods of ‘Disinfection’ which method would you recommend for ‘Municipal Water Supply’ and WHY? Depending on the availability of ‘Source of Water’ which ‘Source’ is more important than the other for disinfection and WHY? Give reason. c) Define or differentiate between “Free Available Chlorine” and “Combined Available Chlorine”. Write their Chemical Formulae and mention which one of them is stronger than the other and by what percentage? d) Define “Break Point Chlorination”. With the help of a neat ‘Figure’ show the “Break Point” and also show “Combined Available Chlorine”, “Free Available Chlorine” and “Total Available Chlorine”. Mention the “Dosage” in order to obtain a “Free…

A new livestock farming community has the option of three different water sources for livestock faming and domestic consumption. The three sources have been assessed in a laboratory for pathogens which have exceeded regulation concentrations - the results are provided below. As part of the decision making, you have been asked to assess the results having a good knowledge of waterborne pathogens and choose the best preferred source of water for treatment and use. In addition, list two advantages to justify your choice. Water source Pathogens detected river lea Burkholderia pseudomallei pond skrow hepatitis E dam campbell cryptosporidium parvum
