The total solids production rate in an activated sludge aeration tank is 7240 kg/d on a dry mass basis. It is necessary to maint

ain a constant solids residence time in the reactor for proper waste treatment. The maximum water content acceptable for disposal of the sludge is 78% and the specific gravity of the solids is 2.5. The density of the water is 1000 kg/m3. What volume of biological sludge from the activated sludge process will require disposal?

Answer:

volume of biological sludge = 28.566 m³ per day

Explanation:

given data

mass of solid = 7240 kg/day

initial moisture content = 78%

solution

here percentage of solid will be

% of solid = 100 - initial moisture content

% of solid = 100 - 78 = 22 %

so that

mass of sludge produced = \frac{100}{100 - P} M kg  per day

put her value

mass of sludge produced = \frac{100}{100 - 78} 7240 kg

mass of sludge produced = 32909.09 kg

so

specific gravity of sludge =  \frac{\rho sludge}{\rho water }

and as we know that

\frac{100}{S sludge} = \frac{solid percentage}{S solid} = \frac{water percentage}{S water}

\frac{100}{S sludge} = \frac{22}{2.5} = \frac{78}{1}

S sludge = 1.152

so that

density of sludge = S sludge × density of water

density of sludge = 1.152 × 1000

density of sludge = 1152 kg/m³

so that

volume of biological sludge = \frac{mass sludge produce}{\rho sludge}

volume of biological sludge = \frac{32909.09}{1152}

volume of biological sludge = 28.566 m³ per day

La fuerza necesaria para girar los birlos de una llanta es de 40 N, si se tiene una cruceta de 0.5m. ¿Cuál es el torque del birl
Anna35 [415]

To Find :

The torque of the stud.

Solution :

We know, torque can be calculated by force and distance between the center and force applied.

So,

\tau = F\times R\\\\\tau = 40 \times 0.5 \ N .\ m\\\\\tau = 20 \ N .\ m

Therefore, the torque on the stud is 20 N m .
