EG-CE 441 Environmental Engineering Homework #6 (Due 04/29/19) 1, 200 m3/d of waste activated sludge at 1% solids is to be thickened to 4% solids by dissolved air flotation. What is the volumetric flow rate of the sludge after thickening?

A complete-mix activated sludge system is used to treat municipal wastewater after primary sedimentation at 20 °C with MLVSS concentration of 2000 g/m3. The discharge standard for soluble BOD, concentration in the effluent is 0.5 g/m. The characteristics of the primary influent are: flow Q -2000 m'/d, soluble BOD -200 g/m3, Using these data and the kinetic coefficients in following, determine 1. Theoretical solids retention time (SRT) in unit of days 2. Pk vss in unit of kg VSS/d 3....
just part e please Activated sludge design A completely mixed activated sludge process is designed to treat 20,000 m/day of domestic wastewater having a BODs concentration of 250 mg/L following primary treatment. The NPDES permit requires that the effluent BOD, and TSS concentra- tions not exceed 20 mg/L on an annual basis. The following biokinetic coefficients are to be used in the design of the process: Y = 0.6 mg VSS/mg BODs, k = 5d"! Ks = 60 mg/L BODs,...
A wastewater treatment plant that treats wastewater to secondary treatment standards uses a primary sedimentation process followed by conventional activated sludge process composed of covered aeration tanks and secondary clarifiers. You are asked to calculate the different operation parameters to make sure that the system is operated within normal process ranges listed in the reference tables below. Table 5-20 Typical design information for primary sedimentation tanks U.S. customary units Item Unit Range Typical Primary sedimentation tanks followed by secondary treatment...
Situation (note: Problem 2 is not linked with Problem 1): Assuming the design flow rate of raw wastewater to be treated is 20 MGD in the design year, the dissolved BODs is 380 mg/L, and SS is 360 mg/L. The wastewater generated by the sludge treatment process is about 4 MGD with the dissolved BODs being 1800 mg/L, and SS being 1200 mg/L, and will be returned to the wet well in the pumping station at the beginning of the...
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...
