1. Disinfectant is bleach, 6%. kills 99.9% of bacteria in 5 minutes.
Calculate the time necessary for disinfection on a surface that would contain 3.2x106 bacteria/in^2
a. How long to reduce the population of bacteria by 90% (the D value)?
b. How long for sterilization? (Assume <0.5 bacteria/in^2 is sterile).
2. Disinfectant is Clorox Disinfectant Wipes, kills 99.9% of bacteria in 4 minutes.
Calculate the time necessary for disinfection on a surface that would contain 3.2x106 bacteria/in^2
a. How long to reduce the population of bacteria by 90% (the D value)?
b. How long for sterilization? (Assume <0.5
bacteria/in^2 is sterile).
* include explanation with calculations.
Homework Answers
1. 99.9 % reduction is equal to log 3 reduction which means that to reduce 50% of population from 106 , 6% disinfection needs 5 minutes. Then to reduce to 106 time required is 10minutes

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...
