ACTIVATED SLUDGE AND NUTRIENT REMOVAL
===========================================
A wastewater treatment plant based on activated sludge with biological phosphate and nitrogen removal via pre-denitrification. The influent flow (dwf) is 30,000 m3/day and the influent BOD concentration is
300 mg BOD/l. The suspended solid concentration in the influent is 150 mg/l of which 40% is removed in the primary clarifier. The sludge recycle flow ratio (fr) is 0.5, the sludge yield (Y) is 0.6 kgX/kgBODremoved and the SVI is 130 mL/g.
The treatment plant consists of different process units, namely:

Final clarifier
Screen
Aerobic tank
Primary sedimentation
Anoxic tank
Grit chamber
Anaerobic tank
Sludge dewatering
After dewatering the sludge will be directly transported to the sludge incineration plant.


Q1:What is the minimum size (volume) in m3 of the aeration tank?

Calculate with a biomass concentration in the aeration tank of 4 g/l and take into account that the primary settler removes 33% of the BOD.



Q2:What would be the size (volume) in m3 of the anaerobic tank (don’t forget the sludge recycle flow to the anaerobic tank)?

Q3:What would be the waste activated sludge (or surplus sludge production) in kg dry weight per day?
Calculate the biomass production assuming all BOD entering the biological process is removed. Also add the primary sludge production, but for simplicity neglect the remainder of the suspended solids.

The biomass production (kg biomass per day) is:?
The primary sludge production (kg per day) is:?

Q4:The sludge is directly dewatered to a final dry solid concentration of 18%. How much trucks, that can transport a load of 30 ton, will be needed per year for sludge transport to the incineration plant?

Q5:How can the produced sludge be reduced maximally, to minimize transport costs?
a//Application of chemical conditioning .b//Application of sludge digestion.c// By thickening of the primary sludge

Question 3e
What would be the waste activated sludge (or surplus sludge production) in kg dry weight per day?

1. Calculate the biomass production assuming all BOD entering the biological process is removed. Also add the primary sludge production, but for simplicity neglect the remainder of the suspended solids.

The biomass production (kg biomass per day) is: Answer=3618
The primary sludge production (kg per day) is: Answer=1800
2:The sludge is directly dewatered to a final dry solid concentration of 18%. How much trucks, that can transport a load of 30 ton, will be needed per year for sludge transport to the incineration plant? Answer=365

Wastewater from a small town is treated in a trickling filter which is preceeded by a screen, sand-removal and primary clarification. The maximum hydraulic capacity, or peak flow, of the treatment plant is
1,500 m3/h. The dry weather flow (Qdwf) amounts 7,500 m3/day, with a BOD concentration of 300 mg/l.
Additional information

After this pre-treatment the water is fed to a trickling filter. The diameter of this trickling filter is 30 m and its height is 3 m.
Assume for the next question no BOD removal in the pre-treatment, so influent BOD concentration is 300 mg/l.
QUESTION 2E

Calculate the loading rate (kg/m3/day) of the trickling filter.
QUESTION 2D-2 (4 points possible)
Assume 4 channels. Take a W:L ratio of 1:15

Dimension the rectangular sand removal channels.

Length (m):


Width (m):

Maximum water height (m):

Allow a free waterboard of 15 cm and a maximum grit accumulation height of 20 cm. Give the total height in m of the grit channel.

2D1
Determine how many parallel channels you will design.ANS 4

What is a common W:L ratio? ANS 1:10

To prevent settling of organic matter a Vs should be Ans---higher than 0.03m/s

Calculate Qdwf in m3/s.---my answer is wrong

Calculate Qrwf in m3/s.my answer is wrong

Answered by I.G.
3F
Denitrification takes place inside the granule +
Due to reduction of oxygen in the outer layer, anoxic conditions will exist inside the granule +
Aerobic granules make settling tanks superfluous
