If the sludge concentration in the return sludge line from the secondary clarifier were the same as the MLVSS concentration (XV)

, would recycle of return sludge increase the SRT?

Answer:

It would decrease the SRT

Explanation:

The SRT is the average time it will take for the activated-sludge solids system to decompose. The concept is expressed in days. The retention time is a very important design and operational parameter in the design of an activated sludge digester. The make-up stream from the second clarifier contains a considerable amount of bacteria which are already active. Therefore, the synergistic action of the bacteria makes the sludge to be digested faster. This, In turn, reduces the time it takes to digest the sludge. Thus, the make-up stream lowers the retention time.

Define the terms (a) thermal conductivity, (b) heat capacity and (c) thermal diffusivity
IceJOKER [234]

Explanation:

<u>(a)</u>

<u>The measure of material's ability to conduct thermal energy (heat) is known as thermal conductivity.</u> For examples, metals have high thermal conductivity, it means that they are very efficient at conducting heat.<u> The SI unit of heat capacity is W/m.K.</u>

The expression for thermal conductivity is:

q=-\kappa \bigtriangledown T

Where,

q is the heat flux

\kappa is the thermal conductivity

\bigtriangledown T is the temperature gradient.

<u>(b)</u>

<u>Heat capacity for a substance is defined as the ratio of the amount of energy required to change the temperature of the substance and the magnitude of temperature change. The SI unit of heat capacity is J/K.</u>

The expression for Heat capacity is:

C=\frac{E}{\Delta T}

Where,

C is the Heat capacity

E is the energy absorbed/released

\Delta T is the change in temperature

<u>(c)</u>

<u>Thermal diffusivity is defined as the thermal conductivity divided by specific heat capacity at constant pressure and its density. The Si unit of thermal diffusivity is m²/s.</u>

The expression for thermal diffusivity is:

\alpha=\frac{\kappa}{C_p \times \rho}

Where,

\alpha is thermal diffusivity

\kappa is the thermal conductivity

C_p is specific heat capacity at constant pressure

\rho is density

Define Viscosity. What are the main differences between viscous and inviscid flows?
Evgesh-ka [11]

1. Define <em>Viscosity</em>

In physics, <em>Viscosity</em> refers to the level of resistance of a fluid to flow due to internal friction, in other words, viscosity is the result of the magnitude of internal friction in a fluid, as measured by the force per unit area resisting uniform flow. For example, the honey is a fluid with high viscosity while the water has low viscosity.

What are the main differences between viscous and inviscid flows?

Viscous flows are flows that has a thick, sticky consistency between solid and liquid, contain and conduct heat, does not have a rest frame mass density and whose motion at a fixed point always remains constant. Inviscid flows, on the other hand, are flows characterized for having zero viscosity (it does not have a thick, sticky consistency), for not containing or conducting heat, for the lack of steady flow and for having a rest frame mass density

Furthermore, viscous flows are much more common than inviscid flows, while this latter is often considered an idealized model since helium is the only fluid that can become inviscid.

Gas chromatography separates compounds depending on their__________ . Benzene, m-xylene, and toluene have similar_________ , the
amm1812

Answer and Explanation:

Gas chromatography separates compounds depending on their **polarity and volatility**. Benzene, m-xylene, and toluene have similar **polarities**, therefore, the main basis for separation is **volatility**. The more volatile a component the ** higher its vapor pressure**, hence the more time it spends in the **gaseous mobile phase**, giving it a **shorter** retention time. Therefore, components of a liquid mixture will elute in order of **increasing boiling points/decreasing volatilities/increasing polarities with the stationary phase**.
