2.a) Derive an expression for exit substrate concentration of an activated sludge process.
b) A completely mixed ASP is to be used to treat W/W flow of1000m3/h having a BOD of
250mg/L. Design criteria are as follows
k : 8/day, kd : 0.1 /day, Ks : 75 mg/L, :5days, X = 2000mg/L
Calculate the exit substrate concentration and volume of aeration tank.
3.a) What is an Oxygen sag curve? Show minimum oxygen from this curve.
b) Just below the point where a continuous discharge of pollutant mixes with a river, the BOD is
10.9 mg/Land DO is 7.6 mg/L The river and w/w has a temperature of 20 0c, a deoxygenation
const. kd 0.20/day an avg flow speed of 0.30m3/s and avg depth of 3.0m.
Find the time and distance d/s at which oxygen deficit is maximum Also find the min value of
DO.
