Groundwater has been contaminated with three chemicals: benzene (log Kow 2.13), pentachlorobenzene (log Kow 5.03), and naphthalene (log Kow 3.36). The aquifer (rs = 2.3 g/cm3; h = 0.4; foc = 0.02) has a gradient of 0.004 and hydraulic conductivity of 500 m/day.
a. Which chemical will be transported the farthest downgradient? Draw an overhead snapshot (planar view) of the plume(s) at a representative time.
b. Calculate the retardation coefficient for the three chemicals.
c. Find the Darcy velocity and the average linear groundwater velocity.
d. Ignoring dispersion and the other chemicals, how long will it take the benzene plume to reach a drinking water well 1000 m downgradient?
e. Given an initial benzene concentration of 20 ?g/L and degradation constant in the aquifer of 0.25 yr-1, assess the lifetime cancer risk to an adult of drinking 2 L/day of benzene-contaminated well water for 30 yrs. Assume residential setting
Describe how test flumes and associated equipment are used to assess and confirm hydraulic behaviour in open channel
A garage (24 ft x 24 ft x 10 ft) is illuminated by (6) 60 watt incandescent bulbs. It is estimated that 90% of the energy to an incandescent bulb is dissipated as heat. If the bulbs are left on for 3 hours, how much would the temperature in the ga..
A surveyor is going to take a 5.5 mile sight across a lake from the top of one tower to a target on the top of another tower. It is desired to keep the line of sight 6 ft above the lake surface.
A customer randomly select 2 of 10 books to purchase. How many combinations of 2 books can be selected
According to information found in an old hydraulies book, the energy loss per unit weight of fluid flowing through a nozzle connected to a hose can be estimated by the formula h=(0.04 to 0.09)(D/d)^4*V^2/2*g
A volume of 1.5x106 m3 of water is then pumped out of the aquifer resulting in a decrease of the groundwater level to 208.8 m. Assuming that the water table in the aquifer responds similarly
Provide the minimum number of ports. The design conditions are: Winter design fl ow rate 4,300 m 3 /d Minimum river elevation held constant by lock and dam system 99.0 m 500-year fl ood elevation 113.3 m River bottom elevation 90.4 m
A single screw extruder is being used to process pregelatinized starch. The screw dimensions are as follows: channel width 3 cm, channel height 0.5 cm and screw length 50 cm. The wall velocity is estimated to be 0.31 m/s.
Determine the horizontal and vertical components of reaction at the pin supports at A and B and indicate direction. Take F1 = 7 KN, F2 = 6 KN, and h = 1 m.
The plate OAB forms an equilateral triangle which rotates counterclockwise with increasing speed about point O. If the normal and tangential components of acceleration of the centroid C
The velocity along a pathline is given by V (m/s) = s^2 x t^(1/2) where s is in meters and t is in seconds. The radius of curvature is 0.5 m. Evaluate the acceleration along and normal to the path at s = 2m and t = 0.5 seconds.
A second load P2 is uniformly distributed around the cap plate at B. The diameters and thicknesses of the upper and lower parts of the post are dAB= 1.25 in, tAB= 0.5 in, dBC= 2.25 in and tBC= .375 in respectively.
