A restaurant and dairy are participating in a community digester pilot program within the UMD Industrial Park. The following was

te stocks are currently treated in the anaerobic digester: waste cooking oil, glass clippings, and cow manure. There is 200 gallons of waste cooking oil delivered per week, six 50 gallons barrels of glass clippings per week, and 500 Liters of cow manure per day. The feedstocks have the following VS concentrations and methane production potentials:________.
Waste cooking oil: 25,000 mg/L VS; 600 L CH4/g VS Grass Clippings: 15,000 mg/L VS; 300 L CH4/g VS Cow Manure: 5,000 mg/L VS; 150 L CH4/g VS

Answer:

2727000 Liters

Explanation:

Determine the daily methane production in liters

<u><em>For waste cooking oil </em></u>;

Delivered amount in liters  = 757.082 liters per week

daily = 757.082 / 7 = 108.154 L/day

waste vs concentration = 25,000 mg/L

Its volatile solid  = 25000 * 10^-3 (g/l) * 108.154 L/day

                           = 2703.864  g/day

hence methane production in liters

= 600 L/g * 2703.864 g/day

= 1622318.57 L

<u><em>For cow manure </em></u>

Delivered amount in liters = 500 liters / day

Vs concentration = 5000 mg/l

Hence amount of Vs = 5000 * 10^-3 * 500  = 2500 ( g/day)

methane production in liters

= 150 * 2500 = 375000 liters

<u><em>For glass clippings </em></u>

Delivered amount in liters per day  = 1135.62 / 7 = 162.23 L/day

amount of Vs = 15000 * 10^-3 (g/L) * 162.23 L/day = 2438.45 ( g/day )

hence the methane production in liters

= 300 * 2433.45 = 730035 L

Hence ∑ daily methane production of each waste

=  1622318.57 + 375000 + 730035 = 2727000 Liters

Determine the required dimensions of a column with a square cross section to carry an axial compressive load of 6500 lb if its l
ycow [4]

Answer: 0.95 inches

Explanation:

A direct load on a column is considered or referred to as an axial compressive load. A direct concentric load is considered axial. If the load is off center it is termed eccentric and is no longer axially applied.

The length= 64 inches

Ends are fixed Le= 64/2 = 32 inches

Factor Of Safety (FOS) = 3. 0

E= 10.6× 10^6 ps

σy= 4000ps

The square cross-section= ia^4/12

PE= π^2EI/Le^2

6500= 3.142^2 × 10^6 × a^4/12×32^2

a^4= 0.81 => a=0.81 inches => a=0.95 inches

Given σy= 4000ps

σallowable= σy/3= 40000/3= 13333. 33psi

Load acting= 6500

Area= a^2= 0.95 ×0.95= 0.9025

σactual=6500/0.9025

σ actual < σallowable

The dimension a= 0.95 inches

It is easy to say that an organization should hire, reward, and dismiss employees based on their character as well as their know
Nata [24]

It is possible to generate a policy in which common points such as those mentioned above are agreed in order to hire or fire employees in their function of their psychological personality, that is, the character of knowledge and skills. Depending on the company, Test could be created in order to evaluate the psychological skills of the employees, as well as Test to periodically determine how their employees are kept up to date with regard to knowledge. The cumulative filter could be done every semester, for which each employee must exceed a minimum margin of score on these tests, otherwise his position could be at risk.

At the same time, incentives can be generated for the best scores that are rewarded not only with monetary values but also with rest days, coupons in restaurants or sports, which would cause the worker to strive to be constantly learning.

This policy agreement is outside the vision and mission of the company, and whose information must be given to the worker once he begins his work activities.
