Suppose that a finished drinking water contains 0.5 mg/L ammonium nitrogen that becomes nitrified by biofilms in the water distribution system. How much chlorine residual will this nitrite consume?
The chlorine residual consumed by 1mg/L is 5 mg/l in general.
So for 0.5mg/l of nitrite require chlorine is equal to
0.5×5
That is equal to 2.5 mg/l of chlorine residues will be consumed by 0.5 mg/l of nitrite.
Thank you

20/27OBLEM: Suppose drinking water contains 1 mg/l of toluene and 0.01 mg/l of tetrachloroethylene (C2C4). A 70 kg adult drinks 2 t/day of this water for 10 years. a) Assess HR and evaluate HR. Was this a safe level of exposure? b) C2C4 is a carcinogen. What would be the carcinogenic risk faced by a person drinking it. Would it be less than 106 (goal)?

The maximum allowed nitrite (NO2-) in drinking water is listed as 1 mg/L; for nitrate (NO3-) it is 10 mg/L. The standard half-cell potential for the nitrate <-> nitrite reaction is Eo = 0.881 V. What is the pE of a water body whose pH is 5.4 that is just at the limits of allowed nitrite and nitrate?
To obtain a fee residual of chlorine of 0.5 mg/L, a dose of 10 mg/L is added to a 36,400 m3/day water treatment plant. Calculate the amount of Cl2 and NH3 required to achieve this situation.

A water treatment plant is using chlorine for disinfection of its finished water. It is considering the use of on-site generation equipment that utilizes electrolysis to transform a brine solution into chorine gas.

3) Practice tice problem 1. When drinking water treatment plants chlorinate water, the chlorine must remain in contact with the water for at least 30 minutes before being delivered to customers. A water plant operator wishes to know i his existing 10,000-gallon storage tank can provide this HRT. He does a wash-out tracer test with fluoride salt (conservative). The initial concentration is i2 mg/L and after an hour of feeding non-fluoridated water through the tank at 20 gpm,...
