1. 1 DO Sag Curve (Streeter-Phelps) April 17, 2006
2. 2
3. 3 Biota vs. D.O.
4. 4
5. 5 What we’re trying to accomplishand how we’re going to do it Calculate the dissolved oxygen deficit using mass balance equation
Start with simplified model and calculation
BOD
Reaeration
Initial DO reduction
Add some more components to the model
Get an equation for D (dissolved oxygen deficit)
Get an equation for tc, the “critical time” when the dissolved oxygen is at its lowest point
6. 6 Very Simplified Model
7. 7 Mass-Balance for Initial Condition
8. 8 Account for other DO gain/loss processes
9. 9 Why We Do All of This To determine how much waste can safely be put in a river
Process
Determine minimum acceptable DO
Calculate waste load that keeps critical DO above the minimum
If discharged waste is above acceptable limits:
More treatment needed
Discharger may add dissolved oxygen to wastewater
Cautions
Be sure to make calculations for worst conditions
Remember to consider all dischargers
