MEE 5801, Industrial and Hazardous Waste Management 1

Course Learning Outcomes for Unit III Upon completion of this unit, students should be able to:

1. Assess the fundamental science and engineering principles applicable to the management and treatment of solid and hazardous wastes. 1.1 Discuss the techniques of coagulation, flocculation, and sedimentation as they relate to an

engineered precipitation process for wastewater treatment. 1.2 Describe the decision making to either increase the pH or decrease the pH of the wastewater

treatment system in order to effectively precipitate heavy metals.

5. Evaluate operations and technologies related to industrial and hazardous wastes. 5.1 Discuss the aspects of a chemical flocculation process design that must be considered during

the engineering process. 5.2 Discuss the aspects of a secondary circular clarifier process design that must be

considered during the engineering process.

Reading Assignment Chapter 3: Chemical Treatment

Unit Lesson In this unit, we are going to learn about the technology available to us in Bahadori’s (2014) discussion on chemical treatment. As such, we are going to continue with our industrial and hazardous waste treatment system design by adding chemical treatment and disinfection processes into our system. The chemical treatment and biological treatment of the waste influents are often considered to be two of the most challenging aspects of the entire treatment system. This is due largely to the fact that chemistry and biology are statistically reliable to an average of about 95%. This means that the other five percent of the time the anticipated chemical and biological activity related to a reaction (chemical or enzymatic) may not work as forecasted. In fact, this is why it is common for us as scholar-practitioners of environmental engineering to conduct a chemical and biological hypothesis level of 95% (Trochim, 2001). We must remember that we are actually testing in research and design (R&D) activities with a statistical confidence, attempting to manipulate nature in order to effectively separate solids (metals and organic materials), gases (volatiles and semi- volatiles), synthetic liquids (organic and halogenated solvents), and water (Texas Water Utilities Association [TWUA], 1991). This is often very challenging. This is why we turn to technological solutions for many of these process options. Chemical treatment and biological treatment are causally related variables within the treatment system. In fact, both the chemical and biological treatment processes have the ability to causally affect the other in tandem (Haas & Vamos, 1995). Stated another way for clarity, the chemical treatment process often informs the biological treatment process. Additionally, the biological treatment process can also inform the chemical treatment process. For example, we may effectively reduce the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) during the chemical treatment process, but then experience still another BOD change in the process with the interruption of aerobic organisms’ enzymatic activities, such as the catalase enzyme described by Bahadori (2014). Consequently, it is very important for us as engineers to closely consider the chemical and biological treatment processes as dynamic processes, rather than static processes inherent during physical treatment (such as oil removal). Let’s start with the chemical treatment process.

Chemical Treatment of Industrial and Hazardous Waste

 

 

 

MEE 5801, Industrial and Hazardous Waste Management 2

UNIT x STUDY GUIDE

Title

Bahadori (2014) describes the chemical treatment process in terms of subsystems (e.g., precipitation, coagulation, chemical oxidation and reduction). However, he does not order these subsystems in a way that is necessarily easy for us to understand in terms of industrial and hazardous waste treatment. Instead, let’s consider the following subsystems in this specific order of treatment techniques, with the correlating principles (Haas & Vamos, 1995; TWUA, 1991) tied to each subsystem within chemical treatment (Bahadori, 2014):

1. Neutralization (pp. 82-83, 93) a. pH (acid/alkaline) and ion exchange b. acid waste neutralization (NaOH, NaOCl) c. alkaline waste neutralization (H2SO4, HNO3)

2. Chemical oxidation and reduction (pp. 82-84) a. ion exchange (mineral softener unit, ion exchange column) b. cyanide reduction (alkaline chlorination, O3, or H2O2 treatment) c. activated carbon adsorption (liquid phase granular absorber) d. air and steam stripping (stripping column or distillation tower)

3. Precipitation (pp. 81-82, 87-94) a. coagulation (Ca(OH)2, Al2(SO4)3, FeCl3, in tandem with polyelectrolytes) b. flocculation (cationic polyacrylamide) c. secondary hydroxide precipitation (NaOH, Ca(OH)2)

4. Solidification and stabilization (pp. 84, 90-92) a. clarifying (secondary clarifier tank) b. sludge thickening (cationic polymers) c. sludge dewatering (filter or belt press)

5. Disinfection (pp. 94-98) a. chemical agent disinfection (chlorination) b. mechanical agent disinfection (filtration) c. biological agent disinfection (activated sludge and Unit IV techniques)

In order to facilitate the chemical reactions associated with neutralizing and reduction/oxidation (redox reactions) activities, it is common to use an inverted cone shaped vessel or Imhoff tank, named after Dr. Karl Imhoff (TWUA, 1991) in order to facilitate greater solids collections into the hopper-shaped bottom while using the gravimetric techniques of flocculating solids (sedimentation) from the liquid phased waste solution (Haas & Vamos, 1995). It is often in the Imhoff tank that one of the most critical aspects of the entire chemical treatment process can occur. This is the precipitation of heavy metals from the solution. Through the manipulation of the wastewater pH (neutralizing the pH from very low or very high values), the neutralization process actually initiates the redox reaction process. In turn, the redox reactions initiate the precipitation process and subsequently the solidification process. The heterogeneous equilibria of the solution becomes very important in this process, given that the equilibrium constant could be defined as the following (Haas & Vamos, 1995):

This means that we could actually then define the solubility of a heavy metal by estimating the activity of a hydroxide ion (OH), and subsequently determine the required equilibrium pH of the wastewater at which a select metal would precipitate (Haas & Vamos, 1995). It is by this method that we realize most heavy metals tend to precipitate within a higher pH wastewater matrix (TWUA, 1991).

Consequently, one effective way to tie together all of these subsystems into a single chemical treatment process could be the following order of in-line equipment, following the physical oil removal equipment: Oil-water separator (Unit 2) Imhoff tank (neutralization/precipitation) ion exchange column (oxidation/reduction) secondary clarifier (stabilization) filter press (solidification) Now, let’s consider our second phase of equipment needs (chemical treatment) for our proposed project design as we use our interactive model again.

1. Click here to access the interactive design model. 2. Closely review the influent laboratory report (lift station) against the effluent laboratory report (pop up

report). Remember that the goal is to design our system so that the final effluent concentrations meet the established local limits for the municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP).

3. Continue to use this model in your design work for your course project (proposed industrial and hazardous waste treatment facility) again in this unit.

Be sure and describe the relevance and anticipated reduction of related analytical concentrations within your industrial and hazardous waste treatment system as they correspond with each technology that you selected. You are required to describe the equipment selection in at least one page.

While we allow Bahadori (2014) to discuss sewage treatment systems within the context of the required reading for Unit V, we are going to spend a little time considering one of the ancillary aspects of sewage treatment involving hydrocarbon-laden liquid wastes. Bahadori (2014) discusses some areas of this topic in our suggested reading for this unit, but an overview of his presentation may help us better because of some often overlooked independent variables causally related to the safety of an industrial and hazardous waste treatment system. One of the critical variables related to the safety of a treatment system is the air quality surrounding the processes, particularly when hydrocarbons are present in the influent waste streams. As such, it is imperative that we understand the relationship of solubility of certain petroleum-related organic compounds and hydrocarbons in water, as well as their relative emission rates coming from the wastewater during the processes. By definition, a hydrocarbon is a compound containing only two elements, carbon and hydrogen (Hill & Feigl, 1987). While we were likely able to decant and remove much of the visible hydrocarbon and petroleum-related organic compounds from the wastewater during the physical treatment process of our system, the lighter organic compounds (specifically the light alkanes methane and ethane) may be persistent in the wastewater (Bahadori, 2014). These alkanes are sometimes called saturated hydrocarbons, due to the fact that each carbon atom is bonded with four hydrogen atoms with no double or triple bonds (Hill & Feigl, 1987). This is further complicated with the fact that these two compounds typically have very low solubility in water, and subsequently are emitted as gases in the process (Bahadori, 2014; Haas & Vamos, 1995). As such, these compounds pose threats to the safety of the process work environment, given that both methane and ethane have relatively low flashpoints. For example, methane (CH4) has a flashpoint of −368.6ºF and lower explosive limit of 5.3%, and ethane (C2H6) has a flashpoint of −202ºF and a lower explosive limit of 3.0% (Lewis, 1991). One could only imagine the threat of spark in this environment while operating the treatment process. Consequently, it is important for us as engineers to anticipate the aqueous solubility of these saturated hydrocarbons in the wastewater as a means of forecasting the emissions from the process. Bahadori (2014) presents his previous work to demonstrate calculated coefficients that can be used to correlate the mole fractions of individual components of a hydrocarbon-laden solution and subsequently reduced partial pressure of the solution. The tabulated coefficients are presented for both methane and ethane, with a follow-on formula for forecasting the hydrocarbon-water solubility of these two alkanes, as well UNIT V STUDY GUIDE Designing Liquid Waste Management Systems for Industrial and Hazardous Waste MEE 5801, Industrial and Hazardous Waste Management 2 UNIT x STUDY GUIDE Title as the rest of the continuous-chain alkane ranges of propane (C3H8) through hexane (C6H14) and hexane through decane (C10H22) (Bahadori, 2014; Hill & Feigl, 1987). Finally, the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) can then be anticipated in units of percent by weight for each petroleum-related compound and subsequently correlated as a ratio of DOC to chemical oxygen demand (COD) or DOC/COD. As such, a predicted value for DOC derived from the DOC/COD ratio (0.267) may be calculated solely from the COD measurements (Bahadori, 2014). For example, if a petroleum-laden wastewater has a COD value of 500 ppm, the anticipated calculation for predicting DOC could be made as follows (Bahadori, 2014): DOC/COD = 0.267 Where DOC = X COD = 500 ppm then X/500 ppm = 0.267 or X = 500 ppm (0.267) so X = 133.5 ppm or DOC = 133.5 ppm Still, Bahadori (2014) presents additional tabulated information derived from historical DOC concentration measurements from refinery effluents for both organics and inorganics traditionally found in those waste streams. You may find this information useful in your own engineering work for your industrial and hazardous waste treatment system currently under design in this class. Remember that the ultimate reason for predicting the DOC concentrations in the wastewater is to mitigate hazardous environmental conditions for both humans and the ecological life surrounding and interacting with the treatment process. As such, you may consider the relative intrinsic safety of pumps, motors, mixers, and other equipment that is designed into the process as part of the system. Let’s return to our interactive model and design in the biological and secondary treatment phase of our proposed industrial and hazardous waste treatment system. 1. Click here to access the interactive design model. 2. Closely review the influent laboratory report (lift station) against the effluent laboratory report (pop up report). Remember that the goal is to design our system so that the final effluent concentrations meet the established local limits for the municipal WWTP. 3. Continue to use this model in your design work for your course project (proposed industrial and hazardous waste treatment facility) again in this unit. Notice that as you design the next-to-last phase of this system, the process is noticeably dropping the concentrations of the constituents

Fire Protection Technology

/in /by
Part 4: Scenario-Based Case Study

Refer to the unit study guide for the needed information about water systems before attempting to complete this assignment.

For this assignment, you will submit Part 4 of the scenario-based case study course project, which is due in Unit VIII. You should evaluate and revise the recommendations as needed during the process for each previous unit as you learn more during the progression of this course. Please continue to draw upon your imagination to think creatively on potential concerns with fire and explosive hazards, fire controls, and fire and emergency management. Look at fire protection technology in a holistic way that is significantly different from what was previously designed by thinking in isolation. You will evaluate and develop recommendations to resolve potential fires in the future.

Section I

As you make suggestions to improve life, safety, and fire protection, refer back to the background information, if needed, to provide you with the necessary material to identify the basic components common to fire protection for the City of Washington Distribution Warehouse.

As we have been building on each phase of the scenario for fire protection design, evaluate the appropriate quality, quantity, and pressure of the water protection system in the scenario.

This assignment is not looking for compliance with building codes nor expecting you to be a fire protection system designer. However, the purpose of this assignment is for you to apply the concepts and knowledge you have learned in this unit as you begin writing your final project covering protection systems that will detect, contain, control, and extinguish a fire. In addition, this assignment provides you with the opportunity to use your skills, expertise, and experience to enrich your response.

Prepare a well-organized narrative addressing the existing water distribution system suppling the fire protection system for the warehouse described in the unit study guide. Your discussion will consist of your evaluation of the water system and the effect of water pressure on the fire as it relates to the movement of water, the components of a water supply and distribution network, and if the warehouse should be on the public water system or private water system.

Section II

In the unit lesson, fire brigades were described. Explain the views to a reader unfamiliar with fire brigades, including references to specific statements. What are the characteristics of fire brigades in the industrial or commercial setting? Should fire brigades be a part of today’s fire protection? Why, or why not?

For this assignment, you will write a two-page narrative (one page per section) supporting your position. Use APA level one headings for each section. The heading should be indicative of the major section to follow. You must have a title page and references page. You may use information from reputable, reliable journal articles, case studies, scholarly papers, and other sources that you feel are pertinent. You should use at least three sources, one of which must be your textbook. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations following proper APA style.

Informal Settlement

/in /by

You fail to reach an informal settlement agreement with the area director. You file a Notice to Contest within the required 15-day period. Your case is assigned to an administrative law judge (ALJ). Prepare a document summarizing the case you will submit to the ALJ. The document should, at a minimum, discuss the following issues:

which citations and penalties you would contest,

the reasoning behind each contested citation and/or penalty,

documents you would bring to the hearing,

individuals you would use at the hearing,

how the case before the ALJ differs from the informal conference,

what information will be presented before the ALJ that was not presented in the informal conference, and

what information you would request from OSHA as part of discovery.

You must support your actions with reliable sources. Your grade will be based on your ability to present a case to your professor, serving as the ALJ, to reduce or vacate either the severity of some citations or the amount of some penalties. If you simply state that you accept the citations and penalties as written, you will receive a minimal score on the assignment.

Your response must be a minimum of two pages in length, using at least one reference. All sources must be cited in the text and on the reference page, using APA style
