Please help ty. The David L. Tippin Water Treatment Facility that serves the City of Tampa, Florida, treats surface waterfrom the Hillsborough River Reservoir. The local water management district works to protect waterquantity and quality through management of the watershed. Some of this includes managing how muchgroundwater (which provides baseflow) can be withdrawn farther up in the watershed and throughmanaging how land is used (or protected) within the watershed. The treatment plant is permitted for amaximum flow of 120 MGD and serves approximately 600,000 people.The process begins by pumping surface water into parallel rapid mix and ActifloTM systems. As thewater travels between the water intake and the beginning of the coagulation/flocculation processes,sulfuric acid, polymer, and ferric sulfate are added to the water. ActifloTM is a high-rate settling andcoagulation/flocculation process that uses sand to promote flocculation. The resulting flocs from the twocoagulation/flocculation processes settle by gravity in sedimentation basins.Following this the pH is raised to between 6 and 6.5 by adding lime (Ca(OH)2) prior to ozonation.Ozonation consists of an eight chambered contactor with weirs located between each chamber controllingflow conditions. Between 0.5 and 3 ppm of ozone is diffused into the water in the first two chambers. Anyremaining ozone at the end of the chambers is quenched by the addition of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂).Caustic soda (NaOH) is then used to raise the pH to between 7.2 and 8 prior to biofiltration.Biofiltration consists of a 24-in layer of granular activated carbon (GAC) on top of 12 in of sand.Microbes reside in the GAC and increase removal of turbidity and low-molecular-weight organic materialthat may contribute to formation of biofilms in the water distribution system. Manganese and iron are alsoremoved by the filters. After filtration, water is directed to a blending chamber. Here, chlorine (dosedfrom chlorine gas dissolved into a sidestream) is added first, followed by anhydrous ammonia (NH3) afteran approximately 15-min retention time. Fluoride is added at the same spot as ammonia. Chloraminatedfinished water is then stored in a clearwell until pumped into the water distribution system.The text above describes the process employed by the David L. Tippin Water Treatment Facility. Draw acomplete flow diagram for the process.

A wastewater treatment plant discharges 2.16x107 L/hr of treated effluent with an ultimate BOD of 22.0 mg/L and dissolved oxygen concentration of 5.0 mg/L to a river. Upstream of the waste discharge, the river has a flow of 9.0 m3/s, an ultimate BOD of 10.0 mg/L, and dissolved oxygen concentration of 7.0 mg/L. Both the river and effluent are at 20°C. After the river and effluent mix, the river flows at a velocity of 0.13 m/s and has a depth of 1.8 m. The deoxygenation rate constant for the waste is 0.45 day-1. A fish hatchery is located 9.6 km downstream of the waste discharge. The hatchery requires 5.0 mg/L DO for healthy fish growth and reproduction. Is the hatchery requirement being met? show all work
The lowest flow in the Ozama River in July is about 48 m3/s. The dissolved oxygen concentration of the river just upstream of the discharge point is 4 mg/l and the ultimate BOD of the river is 10 mg/l. A farm discharges 2m3/s of untreated wastewater with a dissolved oxygen concentration of 0.5 mg/l and an ultimate BOD of 300 mg/l. Both the river and the discharge are at 25°C. what is the initial oxygen deficiency after mixing (i.e., as soon as the wastewater and the river have mixed)? What is the ultimate initial BOD after mixing? Can the farm be allowed to continue discharging raw water? Justify your answer.

Calculatethe dissolved-oxygen deficit at the mixing basin. Assume that the river and plant discharge havethe same flow rate and DO at saturation is 9 mg/L.

A wastewater treatment plant treats a wastewater at a flowrate of 10 million liters per day. The wastewater has zero dissolved oxygen when it leaves the plant. The NPDES requirements include a minimum dissolved oxygen concentration of 2 mg/L in the discharge to protect the river. As an engineer, you must design a reaeration system to provide a minimum dissolved oxygen concentration of 3 mg/L (using a 1.5 safety factor). Use the reaeration data for the reactor with the largest volume to design a system. Assume each reactor that you used in lab represents the capacity of one aerator. How many aerators will be required to reaerate the water?

Upstream of the wastewater outfall from Smyrna, the BOD5 is 3.2 mg/L. The BOD rate constants k are 0.202 d-1 and 0.085 d-1 for the wastewater and creek respectively.

Poorly treated municipal wastewater is discharged to a stream. The river flow rate upstream of the discharge point is Qus = 8.7 cubic meters per second. The discharge occurs at a flow of Qd = 0.9 cubic meters per second and has a BOD concentration of 50 mg/L. Assuming that the upstream BOD concentration is negligible.

(b) If the stream has a cross-sectional area of 10 square meters, what would the BOD concentration be 50 km downstream? BOD is removed with a first-order decay rate constant equal to 0.20/day.
The minimum flow of a river is 50 m³/s having a dissolved oxygen (DO) content of 7 mg/1 (80% saturation) and BOD5 of 8.0 mg/l. It receives a wastewater discharge of 5 m³/s with BOD5 of 200 mg/l and no DO.
