1 CE 3231 - Introduction to Environmental Engineering and Science Readings for Next Class: Chapter 1.3 O hio N orthern U niversity Introduction Chemistry, Microbiology & Material Balance Water & Air Pollution Env Risk Management Material Balance I – Flow Developing a mathematical understanding of a system helps in predicting how a system will be have under a given circumstance. Developing a mass balance is often the first step engineering students take into mathematical modeling and a skill that is applied throughout engineering. Here we examine flow.

2 Lecture 15 Flow (Material Balance I)

3 Global Pandemic

4 Where are material and energy balances important within Environmental Engineering? Sustainability Green chemistry Alternative energy Smart Development Water Purification Water Quality Air Quality Laws & Regulations Sanitation Solid/Hazardous Waste Soil/Sediment Quality Remediation

5 Unifying Theories Conservation of Mass Conservation of Energy Conservation of Mass and Energy

6 Material Balances Accumulation = In – Out +/- reactions Control Volume (system boundaries) Examples: Flow, Mass Flow, Mass Flow with Reaction

7 Flow A hot tub with a volume of 1.0 m 3 is filled with a hose. The hose has a flowrate of 2.5 gal/minute. How long will it take the hot tub to fill?

8 Flow Because it will take a long time, you walk away. After 3 hours you return and notice the water was overflowing. How much water overflowed? And what was the rate of overflow once the water topped the hot tub walls?

9 Flow Sewer systems from 5 homes flow into a man-hole at the end of a subdivision. The flow from each of the houses is given below. Assuming the specific gravity of the wastewater from house one through four is 1.2, and the specific gravity from house 5 is 1.6, what is the outflow from the system if the specific gravity of the combined waste is 1.25? Flows 200 L/day (house 1) 100 L/day (house 2) 350 L/day (house 3) 250 L/day (house 4) 80 L/day (house 5)
