Determine the reactor volume (assume a CSTR activated sludge aerobic reactor at steady state) required to treat 5 MGD of domesti

c wastewater from an influent BOD concentration of 250 mg/L to an effluent concentration of 10 mg/L. X (MLVSS) = 3000 mg/L, and the kinetics are first order and not variable order. The first order equation you must use to calculate the specific substrate utilization rate is q = K S where S is the effluent BOD concentration and K is the first order BOD degradation rate constant. The value of K is 0.04 L/(day*mg). What is the required reactor volume in MG (millions of gallons)? All the choices below are in units of MG.

Answer:

1.0MG

Explanation:

to solve this problem we use this formula

S₀-S/t = ksx --- (1)

the values have been given as

concentration = S₀ = 250mg

effluent concentration = S= 10mg

value of K = 0.04L/day

x = 3000 mg

when we put these values into this equation,

250-10/t = 0.04x10x3000

240/t = 1200

we cross multiply from this stage

240 = 1200t

t = 240/1200

t = 0.2

remember the question says that 5MGD is required to be treated

so the volume would be

v = 0.2x5

= 1.0 MG

A 50 Ibm block is moving at 4 ft/s. Find Its total kinetic energy? Also find Its kinetic energy per unit mass is
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Total kinetic energy= 400 puondal foot

Kinetic energy per unit mass= 8 (poundaul foot/lb)

Explanation:

To determine the total kinetic energy of the block we use the equation:

Kinetic energy = (1/2) × m × (v^{2}) = (1/2) × (50lb) × (4 foot/s)^{2}) =

= 400 poundal foot

To establish the kinetic energy per unit of mass we must simply divide the value of the total kinetic energy obtained previously by the mass of the block obtaining:

Kinetic energy per unit mass= (400 poundal foot) / (50lb) =

= 8 (poundaul foot/lb)

In a semiconductor manufacturing process, three wafers from a lot are tested. Each wafer is classified as pass or fail. Assume t
gladu [14]

Answer:

F(x) = 0           ;  x < 0

         0.064   ;  0 ≤ x < 1

         0.352   ;  1 ≤ x < 2

         0.784   ;  2 ≤ x < 3

            1        ;    x ≥ 3

Explanation:

Each wafer is classified as pass or fail.

The wafers are independent.

Then, we can modelate X : ''Number of wafers that pass the test'' as a Binomial random variable.

X ~ Bi(n,p)

Where n = 3 and p = 0.6 is the success probability

The probatility function is given by :

P(X=x)=f(x)=nCx.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

Where nCx is the combinatorial number

nCx=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

Let's calculate f(x) :

f(0)=3C0.(0.6^{0}).(0.4^{3})=0.4^{3}=0.064

f(1)=3C1.(0.6^{1}).(0.4^{2})=0.288

f(2)=3C2.(0.6^{2}).(0.4^{1})=0.432

f(3)=3C3.(0.6^{3}).(0.4^{0})=0.6^{3}=0.216

For the cumulative distribution function that we are looking for :

P(X\leq x)=F(x)

F(0)=f(0)\\F(1)=f(0)+f(1)\\F(2)=f(0)+f(1)+f(2)\\F(3)=f(0)+f(1)+f(2)+f(3)=1

F(0)=0.064\\F(1)=0.064+0.288=0.352\\F(2)=0.064+0.288+0.432=0.784\\F(3)=0.064+0.288+0.432+0.216=1

The cumulative distribution function for X is :

F(x) = 0           ;  x < 0

         0.064   ;  0 ≤ x < 1

         0.352   ;  1 ≤ x < 2

         0.784   ;  2 ≤ x < 3

            1        ;    x ≥ 3
