A water treatment plant uses surface water as their source water. In order for the sedimentation process to work properly, the water must be treated with coagulant. Upon measurement it was determined that the water contains 1.59x1010 particles/mL, the particles have an average diameter of 1.5 um, and the shearing is the dominant flocculation mechanism. The average temperature of the water is 25oC. The dosing point for the coagulant is in the rapid mix basin, which models a continuous mixed flow reactor (CMFR), with a flowrate of 0.150 m3/s and a detention time of 20 seconds. Determine the power required if the particle concentration in the effluent must be 10% of the initial particle concentration after the coagulation process.

A water treatment plant is processing water at a flow rate of 1.5 m/s using three parallel treatment trains. The detention times for the rapid mix tank, flocculation basin, and rectangular sedimentation basin are 10 sec, 30 min and 60 min, respectively. The velocity gradients for the rapid mix and flocculation tanks are 900 s and 60:40:20 s1, respectively. The viscosity of water is 0.001 Pa-s. (a) Determine the size and power requirements for rapid mix tanks. (b) Determine the...

[3 pts] A water treatment plant consists of coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, filtration and disinfection. The suspended solids concentration in the raw water coming into the plant is 500 mg/L and the plant treats 8 MGD. Alum (Al2(S04)3 14H20) is used as a coagulant with a dose of 50 mg/L. Compute the total solid sludge produced daily if a complete reaction of alum to aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)3] occurs and 98% total solids are removed by the sedimentation and filtration steps. The...

The flocculation process in one treatment train at a surface water treatment plant is to be designed to treat a flow rate of 12 ML/d with a hydraulic detention time of 30 minutes. The flocculation basin should be divided into 4 equally sized stages with successively lower velocity gradients in each stage (that is, tapered flocculation). The velocity gradients in stages 1, 2, 3, and 4 should be 80, 65, 50, and 35 s−1, respectively. The water temperature is 15°C....

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...
