A water treatment facility uses ferric chloride as a coagulant. The natural alkalinity of water is 20 mg / l as CaCO 3. Calculate the amount of ferric sulfate to be added to the coagulation tank.
1. A water treatment facility uses ferric chloride as a coagulant. The natural alkalinity of water is 20 mg/l as CaCO 3 and 14,5 mg/l of slacked lime as CaO is used additionally to prevent exhaust of alkalinity. Determine how much ferric chloride is used to the treat water by the facility.
2. A water treatment facility has been using 12 mg/L of alum to be dosed in coagulation tank. New manager of the facility asked for chemical substitution and requested usage of ferric chloride, instead of alum, without changing the dose. Please compute the changes in parameters below, to help technicians about new operating conditions. a. Alkalinity consumption as (CaCO 3 ) b. Production of (CO 2 ) c. Required lime amount to offset the coagulant (as Ca(OH) 2 )
3. For a water treatment plant ferric sulfate (Fe 2 (SO 4 ) 3 ) is to be added as 40 mg/l. Assuming sufficient alkalinity is present in water as Ca (HCO 3 ) 2 determine the total mass of solidsin the tank assuming suspended solid concentration in water is 20 mg/l and the water flow of the treatment plant is 10000 m 3 /d.
4. A crossflow, horizontal shaft, paddle-wheel flocculation basin with 5 m depth,9.6 m width and 22 m length is designed for a water treatment plant. Detention time of the basin is 45 min. In the tank, there are three horizontal shafts with four paddles (for each shaft) with a rotating speed of 2.2 rpm. . Each paddle blade is 0.2 m wide and 9 m long and the centerline of the paddles is 1.5 m from the shaft.
Determine:
a) Flow of the tank b) Velocity of paddles c) Drag force of the paddles (C D = 1.9, water = 1000 kg/m 3 , V= 0.7*Vp) d) The power input required e) G and GT value (at 10 C water = 1.30710 -3 Pa.s)
5. During the coagulation test, with particles having the diameter of 2.8 m, does orthokinetic or perikinetic flocculation predominate? Note that 10/sec of G is observed in the solution at 25 0 C.
