A tray tower provides 10 equilibrium stages for stripping
ammonia from a wastewater stream by
using a countercurrent air stream at 1 atm and 300 K. Assume that
the inlet water concentration
is 0.2 mole% ammonia, the inlet air does not have ammonia, and 1
SCM (standard cubic meter)
of air is fed to the tower per kilogram of wastewater. Here the
equilibrium curve is linear with
m= 1.414.
(a) Estimate the outlet molar concentration in the exit
water.
(b) Assuming that the Murphree efficiency for the process is 65%,
estimate the number of
real trays required for this process.
(c) How many real trays would be required to achieve ½ of the
concentration in (a)?

A wastewater plant needs to reduce the methane content in water
in a stripping tower to 0.3 mol %. The liquid stream is entering
the tower with a flow rate of 200 mole/h and contains 0.8 mol %
methane. The tower uses pure air for stripping and its temperature
and pressure are held constant at 300 K and 1 atm, respectively.
The equilibrium relation for methane in the air-water system is ? =
1.2?. a) Find the minimum vapor flow...

An environmental activist research group collects 16 samples
from a wastewater effluent stream of a chemical plant in Bhopal
(India) and measures the concentration of a potent cyanide-based
toxin. Their results yield a mean concentration of ?. ? ?pm with a
sample variance of ?. ?5 ???^?. It may be assumed that the data are
the realization of a normally distributed random variable.
(a) What is the two-sided 98% confidence interval for the
measured toxin concentration in the effluent stream?...

An aerobic, continuous-strirred-tank-reactor system is used to
oxidize formaldehyde in a wastewater stream from a particle board
manufacturing facility. The initial formaldehyde concentration is
50 mg/L, the degradation rate constant is 0.18/day, the flow rate
is 400 gal/min, and the reactor volume is 12,000 gal. Determine (a)
the concentration of formaldehyde in the treated effluent and (b)
the amount of oxygen required (lb/d) to carry out the process.

Question 610 pts
A BOD test is run using 10 mL of treated wastewater. Chemicals
to inhibit nitrification were added. The initial dissolved oxygen
(DO) in the bottle is 9.5 mg/L and after 5 days, the DO is 5.0
mg/L. For the bottles that were allowed to run for 20 days, the DO
is 4.0 mg/L. A similar test was done where nitrification was not
inhibited. The initial DO was the same and the DO after 20 days was
3.0...

Using a pH 10 buffer solution of aqueous ammonia and aqueous
ammonium chloride, for what reason are we buffering the solution to
be basic? What would happen to the structure of EDTA without a
buffer? Explain how this would affect titration.
