Q1: A small river is to be used as source of water supply for a small community. The minimum flow in this river is 550 m/h. The population analysis reveals that the population is expected to increase linearly from a population of 10,000 in 2020 to 30,000 in 2050. The water consumption of the community is estimated to reach an annual average demand of 300 Lpcd. Would you be able to supply this demand

The current population of a community is 40,000 capita, and the expected futurepopulation after 25 years is 100,000 capita. The current maximum monthly design flow is 10,000m3/day. An existing water treatment plant (WTP) has a maximum capacity (i.e., Qmax) of 15,000m3/d. Assume an arithmetic population increase rate, determine when the plant needs to beexpanded.

Q 5. (a) Please discuss the two main causes of water shortage. Also explain the adverse effect of this shortage on economy.
The community of Enviro, USA, has found that its present ground water supply is inadequate to meet future needs and must be replaced with a new surface water supply. A dam and impounding reservoir will be built on Clear Creek and water delivered to Enviro by two new transmission mains. As a first step calculate the future water demands based on the data given below: DESIGN DATA POPULATION: Census Date Population Annual Growth Rate Design Period, years Service Start Date WATER USAGE DATA: 1/1/2022 40,000 2% 20 1/1/2032 150.00 1.6 Annual Average, gpcpd Maximum Daily/Average Maximum Hourly/Average 2.8 Minimum Hourly/Average 0.6 Complete the table for the beginning, middle, and end of the design period.

Problem 1A 300-house residential development is proposed. Assume that each person uses 500 liters on average eachday. Suppose that four people live in each house. Calculate how many more liters of water per day onaverage that will need to be supplied.
to the USGS According (https://water.usgs.gov/watuse/data/2010/), the total water withdrawals (gal/day) for El Paso County in the year 2010 was 277.5 mgd, and the population of El Paso County was 8.00647 x 10°. What was the average unit wa- ter use (gallons per capita per day) of water for El Paso County in the year 2010? Answer in units of gpcd.
A stream has a minimum flow of 50 m³/min. If no supply reservoirs will be built to store water during high flow periods, what range of urban population could be supplied continuously from the stream based on the range of daily per capita consumptions of 200 - 800 Lpcd. Use a peak factor (max. day/ave. day) of 1.8.
(c) An amount of 4.5 cm of water evaporated from a 150-hectare vertical walled reservoir for two days. Storm water was added to the reservoir at a constant rate of 5.5 m³/s during this period. i) Compute the volume of water released during the period if the water level in the reservoir was the same at the beginning and at the end of the day. Give the answer in hectare-cm. ii) The rate of water consumption recommended by the United Nations per individual is 165 liter per day. Based on the total volume of water lost in QI(c)(i), estimate the total person that lost the opportunity to use this water.
Q-5 Water is supplied to a city having a population of 1 lakh at a constant rate of 150 litres per capita per day. A graph is plotted between the cumulative flow versus time. From the curve it was found that the surplus is maximum at 7 hours when cumulative demand is 2.95 Million liters and demand is maximum at 20 hours when the cumulative demand is 13.65 Million liters. The maximum capacity of reservoir using mass curve method is ML.
The average precipitation in a 224 square kilometer watershed was found to be 26.3 centimetre/month from January to June and the total stream flow (runoff) was found to be 18.5 centimetre. The height of the water surface in this certain watershed rose by 4.1 centimetre during this period. Assuming the net groundwater flows are negligible, calculate the amount of water evaporated from this watershed during this specific period of time. Express your answer in: (a) centimetre; (b) centimetre/month; (c) cubic centimeter; and (d) cubic meter
