Determine the number of sand filters needed to treat a total flowrate of 100,000 m3/day if...
2. A sanitation district is to install rapid sand filters downstream of the clarifiers. The design- loading rate is selected at 190 m/m per day. The design capacity of the waterworks is 0.30 m/sec. The maximum surface per filter is limited to 50 m² • a.) Design the number and size of filters (Assume the cross section of filters is square, determine the length of side); calculate the normal filtration rate base on your design. b.) A sieve analysis curve...
QUESTION 6 [14 MARKS] A slow sand filter treats 4 MI/day at a rate of 0.1 m/hour. a. Determine the area and number of units required if the rate of must not exceed 0.18 m/hour when one filter is backwashed, and 0.25 m/hour when one filter is out of service and another is being backwashed. (10) b. Explain what would happen if the maximum rate of treatment is exceeded. (4) QUESTION 6 [14 MARKS] A slow sand filter treats 4...
Daily samples of 150 sand filters are removed from Pentair Corporation's assembly line and inspected for defects. Over the past 22 days, the following information has been gathered.

primary clarifier is to be designed for a municipal wastewater treatment plant with a flow of 4160 m/d and peak flow during the day of 3.10 times the average hourly flow. Pertinent data are: peak overflow rate 73.3 m/d.-m2, maximum peak weir loading 373 m3/d-m, and minimum tank depth 2.13 m. Determine: A. The clarifier diameter B. The side water deptlh C. The peak weir loading. Is it acceptable? D. The percent suspended solids removal on the basis of the...
\The flow rate to treat is 5.6 MGD and the BOD concentration is 150 mg/L. The design solids concentration (X) at steady-state is 2,000 mg/L. The design MCRT is 7 days. The kinetic coefficients are as follows: k = 2 g BOD/g cells*day; Ks = 25 mg BOD/L; kd = 0.06 1/day; Y = 0.5 g cells/g BOD. The influent ammonia concentration is 40 mg/L and nitrification is needed. It takes 1400 ft3 of air per pound of BOD. Use...

4. Determine the number of filter bags required for an 8-compartment baghouse that uses pulse-jetting as the method to remove particulate matter from the bags. The process gas exhaust rate is 100,000 ft/min and the recommended air-to-cloth ratio is 4 ft/min. The bags specified by the manufacturer have a diameter of 6 inches and height of 10 ft. (a) what is the total required fabric area? (ft)? (b) What number of bags is required? (c) How many bags are in...
For the table below, design an ion exchange system for the removal of calcium. The flow rate to be treated is 5.45 ML/d. The system should be sized so that the minimum time between regenerations is 72 h. The column diameter should be 3 m and there should be at least 2 columns. Pilot testing indicates optimal regeneration efficiency corresponded to using 10% NaCl solution (specific gravity = 1.07) at a salt usage rate of 310 kg NaCl per m3...
