A 75,000 ft3 clarifier is to be used to treat wastewater. The recycle ratio is 50%, the sludge volume index (SVI) is 125, and the return activated sludge concentration is 8000 mg/L. The biomass concentration is 3500 mg/L. The combined design flow rate of the primary and secondary clarifiers is 2.5 MGD. After primary treatment, the wastewater has an influent BOD concentration of 200 mg/L and an influent suspended solids concentration of 200 mg/L. Two secondary clarifiers, each 28 ft in diameter, are then used. After secondary treatment, the effluent BOD concentration is 15 mg/L, and the effluent suspended solids concentration is 20 mg/L. The volume of sludge produced is 0.5 MGD. What is most nearly the solids residence time

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
