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

Consider the circuit below where R1 = R4 = 5 Ohms, R2 = R3 = 10 Ohms, Vs1 = 9V, and Vs2 = 6V. Use superposition to solve for the
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The value of v2 in each case is:

A) V2=3v for only Vs1

B) V2=2v for only Vs2

C) V2=5v for both Vs1 and Vs2

Explanation:

In the attached graphic we draw the currents in the circuit. If we consider only one of the batteries, we can consider the other shorted.

Also, what the problem asks is the value V2 in each case, where:

V_2=I_2R_2=V_{ab}

If we use superposition, we passivate a battery and consider the circuit affected only by the other battery.

In the first case we can use an equivalent resistance between R2 and R3:

V_{ab}'=I_1'R_{2||3}=I_1'\cdot(\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3})^{-1}

And

V_{S1}-I_1'R_1-I_1'R_4-I_1'R_{2||3}=0 \rightarrow I_1'=0.6A

V_{ab}'=I_1'R_{2||3}=3V=V_{2}'

In the second case we can use an equivalent resistance between R2 and (R1+R4):

V_{ab}''=I_3'R_{2||1-4}=I_3'\cdot(\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_1+R_4})^{-1}

And

V_{S2}-I_3'R_3-I_3'R_{2||1-4}=0 \rightarrow I_3'=0.4A

V_{ab}''=I_3'R_{2||1-4}=2V

If we consider both batteries:

V_2=I_2R_2=V_{ab}=V_{ab}'+V_{ab}''=5V

False! Just saying. You could be under the influence, or just have no clue as to what you're doing.
