QUESTION 2 Supposing you were part of the students who visited Barekease water treatment plant for a practical session during the semester in Kumasi. During the session, you had face to face interaction with the Water Engineer in charge of the chemical treatment unit a.) Discuss four (4) key factors that affect the selection of a disinfectant ) Examine five factors that influence disinfection efficacy and microbial inactivation ) A dual media filter is composed of 0.30 m anthracite (mean particle size 0.20 mm) that is placed over a 0.60 m layer of sand (mean particle size 0.70 mm) with a filtration rate of 9.78 m/h. Assume the grains sphericity ф= 0.75and porosity (ε)=0.40. Determine the head loss in the clean filter?
Explain what an Environmental Engineer responsible for a factory should do to determine whether the flue gas discharged from the factory will create air pollution in the area where it is located.
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.?
