when a cities drinking water is disinfected by chlorine , an undesired by -product chloroform (CHCL3) can be formed. Assume a 73kg person drinks 2.7L/day of water over her/his lifetime. (70years) with a chloroform concentration of 2.98mg/l with a potency factor of 0.007(kg.day/mg). Determine the increased cancer risk for this person. Please give the answer to four decimal places.

A 70-kg individual drinks 2 L/day of water containing 0.015 mg/L of tetrachloroethylene for 20 years. (a) Find the hazard quotient for this exposure. (b) Find the cancer risk. (c) If the individual drinks this water for 30 years instead of just 20, recomputed the hazard quotient and the cancer risk. A man works in an Aluminum smelter for 10 years. The drinking water in the smelter contains 0.015 mg/L arsenic and 0.80 mg/L methylene chloride. His only exposure to...

1. Chloroform (CHCl3) has a Drinking Water standard concentration of 0.10 mg/L . a. What is this concentration expressed as parts per million (ppm)? b. Typical consumption Risk Analysis assumes the average human drinks 2.2 L/day for 70 years. How many grams of CHCl3 would the average human consume during a lifetime at the Drinking Water standard concentration? 2. The Air Quality Standard for sulfur dioxide (SO2) is 0.04 ppm. Express this as mg/m3 at 1 atm and 25oC.

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)?

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
