The Penn State Wastewater Treatment Plant experiences high fluctuations in flow rate throughout the year. During football games, the flowrate and BOD concentration entering the treatment plant increases, while in the summer when the majority of students are gone, the flow rate decreases a. Describe what would happen to the treatment efficiency during each of these events (football games and summer). Justify your answer by describing how the F/M ratio and the mean cell residence time (ec) will change during...

A wastewater treatment plant, which serves a population of 300,000 people, receives an average daily volume of 24 million gallons per day (MGD) at an average influent 5-day biochemical oxygen demand concentration of 200 mgBODs/L and an average influent total suspended solids concentration of 220 mgTSS/L. The plant operates a primary sedimentation process that remove 65% of the incoming TSS and 35% of the incoming BOD %. This process is followed by a secondary treatment process before discharge to the...

:A wastewater treatment plant consisted of a primary sedimentation tank and two stages of trickling filter received flow 44L/Sec , the BOD concentration in raw sewage =440 mg/L , 30% BOD removed in the primary sedimentation tank, volume of filter (first stage )=826000L, volume of filter (second stage)=2563000L, recirculation rate =0.5 in second tank while no recirculation in first tank. Determine the following: 1-The effluent concentration of BOD in each unit. 2-Treatment efficiency of each unit. 3-Treatment efficiency of plant....

You have collected water samples of the influent (raw sewage) and effluent (treated sewage) at Houston Wastewater Treatment Plant. You plan to conduct the BOD5 test to determine the BOD rate constant, k. A. Would you expect the rate constants to be the same or different in these two samples? If different, which would be higher and why? B. If the BOD5 for the raw sewage sample is 600 mg/L, and the ultimate BOD is 650 mg/L at 20oC, find...

T/F (true/false) Wastewater Treatment A principle objective of the conventional activated sludge process is to lower BOD. During the conventional activated sludge process, ammonium is converted to nitrate. A key requirement of the conventional activated sludge process is that it be carried out under strictly anaerobic conditions. In typical systems, denitrification occurs in an aerobic step after the activated sludge step. In the Modified Ludzak-Ettinger (MLE) process (and its variants), "mixed liquor" from the end of the aerobic step is...

2. [20] A small town has been directed to upgrade its primary wastewater treatment plant to a secondary plant that can meet an effluent standard of 25.0 mg/L BODs and 30.0 mg/L suspended solids. They have selected a completely mixed activated sludge system. The following data are available from the existing primary plant. Existing plant effluent characteristics Flow = 0.2000 m 3/s soluble BODs-80 mg/L Assume that the BOD5 of the suspended solids may be estimated as equal to 50%...

2. A tannery wastewater treatment plant has 2250m/d of effluent having de-oxygenation rate of 0.23/d at 20°C. Determine the ultimate Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) (L.) and the remaining O, after 5 days (L.). Then, compute de-oxygenation rate constant (kd) and determine the rate of de-oxygenation in mg/L/d at 25°C. Note that the stream has 5 days BOD of the waste (BOD) OF 450 mg/L. The avg speed, u, of the stream flow is 0.03 m/d. The depth.h, is 1.2m and...
