    High COD in treated effluent

    Thnaks Bimr We normally used to operate MLSS ~6000 ppm. Design data is ~5600 ppmNormally our DO remains 2-3 ppm when effluent COD is normal. With this increase in effluent COD,DO level is increasaed to 6+ ppm although aeration rate is as such fixed-no change.Pl tell activated sludge process is...

    High COD in treated effluent

    Thanks Watthour At the moment we have no facility and experience to judge microbiology of organisms, however we are trying to get it checked by some expert. In this regard, pl give your opinion We have extended air system which goes directly into bioreactor from a compressor. What is "DAF" ?am...

    Silica Slippage in Demin Water

    Thanks Bimir for your reply Check the age of resin. If the anion is older than 7 years, think about replacement.( we replensih 33% resin each year) 2. Check the season. Silica concentration may change seasonally.( yes silica is changing from 5 to max 8.7 ppm. But pl note that at 7 ppm,tranis...

    Silica Slippage in Demin Water

    Hi everybody we have two sets of SAC and SBA anion resins.We are using Rohm and Hass Resins.Total silica in our feed water varies ( open surface water) between 5-8 ppm.Now we are facing problem of silica slippage from anions at same throughputs where we used to see normal results.our limit is...

    Acid tank level indication

    HI all I suggest ultrasonic level transmitter is off course a good option. However, we have experienced that some times, this sensor malfuntions if there are extensive fumes generation and hence condensation on sensor. Similarly, in case your tank pressurizes,then it may again malfunction...

    Thermal shocks in vertical falling thin film evaporators

    Thanks SREisme Units of measurement is 4 tonnes/ hr ( equal to 4000 kg/h ).. I understand what you said.Unfortunately,here we don't have facility of internal inspection of crack mechanism. Say we start operating evaporator on continuous basis ( process wise,we don't have ant problem with...

    Thermal shocks in vertical falling thin film evaporators

    Hi am a chemical engineer and new to this forum.Below is my problem statement: We have a vertical thin film evaporator used to remove solvent from a slurry ( containing 10 - 12 % solids ).HP steam ( 100 barg ) is let down through a PCV upto 50barg ( obviously a SH steam) and goes to four...
