Lignin fractional removal of higher than 0.94 was obtained by using 40 mg/l of alum and 40 mg/l of quaternary ammonium compounds (as cetyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride) per 100 mg/l of lignin (as Indulin C). Initial pH values between 2 and 4 were found to be optimal. The superficial gas velocity should be controlled at some optimum value; for this research the value was 24.2 cm/min. Assuming a wastewater containing 100 mg/l of lignin (as Indulin C) is treated with 40 mg/l of alum and 63.3 mg/l of Arquad 2HT-75 (i.e., 40 mg/l as cetyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride) in a precipitate flotation system, the total treatment costs including chemicals would be $0.352/1,000 gal (or $0.093/1,000 l).","PeriodicalId":17335,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Environmental Engineering Division","volume":"45 1","pages":"629-640"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1974-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76320736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results can be categorized into three cases. In Case I for rapid transverse mixing of the BOD and DO, uniform DO levels occur within most cross sections and the critical deficit is the same as that calculated by the traditional one-dimensional representation. In Case II, the transverse mixing of the BOD and DO is slower and the critical deficit is both higher in magnitude and located upstream relative to the values obtained from the one-dimensional computation. Case III represents the transition range between Cases I and II. Criteria are given for determining which case is applicable for a given set of conditions. The results for the magnitude and location of the critical deficit are given in graphical form in relation to dimensionless parameters.","PeriodicalId":17335,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Environmental Engineering Division","volume":"6 1","pages":"661-678"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1974-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91161087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Model verification was accomplished using existing field data. The model was then utilized to determine the effects of varying BOD loads and alkalinities on a previously designed system. Lower waste-water alkalinities and pHs not only resulted in lower mixed liquor pH values, but also lower dissolved oxygen concentrations. The respiratory quotient was seen to have a significant effect on the system. To obtain a desired DO level, the trade-off between increasing gas flow and aerator horsepower is presented.","PeriodicalId":17335,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Environmental Engineering Division","volume":"3 1","pages":"269-282"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1973-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81848958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is anticipated that the laboratory and data analysis procedures developed can be used to provide basic design and performance relationships for full scale trickling filters.","PeriodicalId":17335,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Environmental Engineering Division","volume":"118 1","pages":"187-204"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1973-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76092983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
