In a certain thermal reactor, for every 100 neutrons emitted from fission, 10 get absorbed in fuel while still “fast” and 40 get absorbed in fuel after becoming “thermal.” The other 50 either leak or get absorbed in non-fuel materials. η T is 2.0 and ηF is 1.5
. [5] a) Calculate the multiplication factor (k) if sufficient information is given.
[5] b) Calculate the resonance-escape probability if sufficient information is given.
[5] c) Given that 20 of the 100 neutrons are absorbed in non-fuel materials after becoming thermal, calculate the thermal utilization (f) if you have enough information

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...
