Dilution Calculation

• V1N1 = V2N2
• 1 m3 = 1000 lit = 1 KL=1MT=1000 Kg (water)
• 1milligram / lit or Kg = 1 ppm
• 1 Kg / 1000 MT or 1000 m3 = 1 ppm
• Kg product / Volume M3 x 1000 = ppm
• ppm / 1000 x volume m3 = Kg product
• Kg product /Sp..Gravity = Liter of product.

The Hydrological Cycle
Water
Water is color less, tasteless and odorless,
transparent liquid at ambient temperature.
3/4 of the earth’s surface is covered by water,
essential for supporting life on earth. It is also
one of the most important raw material of
industry.
Water is plentiful, readily available & inexpensive,
easily handled, can carry large amount of heat.
SOURCE OF WATER
Three source of water is available.
1.Surface water (river, lake, pond).
Lower in TDS.
Higher in TSS.
Quality changes quickly with season.
2.Ground water (well, bore well).
Lower in TSS.
Higher in iron & manganese & TDS
Relatively constant quality.
3. Sea water
High chlorides & salt
Highly corrosive.
Water Distribution

Amount of water on the Earth

Kind of water Amount (106 km3) Distribution ratio (%)

Sea water 1,338 96.53

Fresh water 35.03 2.53

Others 12.97 0.94

1,386 100
Rain is water in its purest natural form. This natural
purity is short lived however, because as it starts
falling becomes contaminated with three types of
impurities.

Dissolved Solids
Impurities in Water

• Suspended solids
• Dissolved solids
• Dissolved Gases
• Color & Taste
Suspended Solids
• Clay
• Silt
• Dirt
• Oil
• Decayed vegetation
• Bacteria
• Algae

• Measured as TSS or Turbidity


Unit : NTU (nephelometer turbidity unit)
Dissolved Solids
Includes dissolved minerals
• Hardness ( Ca & Mg salts)
• Sodium salts
• Iron salts
• Manganese
• Silica
• Aluminum salts
Most common dissolved solids

found in raw water


• Calcium Silica
bicarbonate [Ca(HCO3)2] oxide(SiO2)
sulphate (CaSO4)
• Magnesium Iron
bicarbonate [Mg(HCO3)2] bicarbonate [Fe(HCO3)2]

sulphate (MgSO4) hydroxide Fe(OH)3


• Sodium
bicarbonate NaHCO3 Fe++ (ferrous) -- soluble
sulphate Na2SO4) Fe+++ (ferric) -- insoluble
Chloride NaCl
Dissolved Gases
• Oxygen
• Carbon dioxides
• Ammonia

Solubility of gases is inversely proportional


to temperature.
Taste & Odor

Taste & Odor are due to dissolved organic &


in organic substances.

Usually removed by Activated Carbon Filter


Important Chemical
Properties of Water

• TDS /Conductivity
• Hardness
• pH
• Alkalinity
Conductivity
• A measure of how well water will conduct
electric current
• Conductivity is an indirect measurement of
Total Dissolved Solids.

Unit :
TDS : ppm
Conductivity : Micro siemens or Mili siemens
Hardness
Salts of Calcium & Magnesium
Measured by titration against 0.02N EDTA
Cause scaling
HCO3 of Ca & Mg
Carbonate hardness
Temporary hardness
SO4--,NO3 of Ca & Mg
Non Carbonate hardness
Permanent hardness
pH
pH = - log ( H +)

A scale to measure H+ or OH-

At 7 pH
H+ = OH-
Alkalinity
• Capacity to neutralize acidity.
• CO2, HCO3, CO3, & OH
• Measured by titration against Sulphuric
Acid.
• M or Total alkalinity
• P alkalinity
• OH alkalinity
Alkalinity
• M or Total alkalinity – HCO3+CO3+OH
• P alkalinity – pH > 8.3 - OH + 0.5 CO3
• OH becomes measurable above 9.6 pH
• pH < 4.4 mineral acid is present,CO2 tries to escape.
• pH between 4.4 – 8.3 equilibrium exists between
carbonates & CO2
• pH between 8.3 – 9.6 equilibrium exists between
bicarbonates & CO3
• Above pH 9.6 equilibrium exists between carbonates &
OH
Alkalinity

pH > 9.6
2P – M = OH
pH 8.2 – 9.6
2P = CO3
M – 2P = HCO3

Flow / Velocity Calculation

• Flow volume =Area of cross section x velocity


• Velocity = Flow volume / Area of cross section
Problems
How many Kgs are required to make 2 m3
of a 1% solution of product ?

If the product weight 1.02 kg/lit , how many


liters of the product is needed
When the level gets down to 0.6 m3, you
want to refill the tank to 2 m3,How many lit
of the product should be added.
Calculations
• 1 % solution = 10000ppm
• Volume = 2m3
Volume m3 x ppm

• Kg Product =
1000

= 2 x10000 /1000
= 20 kg
Calculations

• Product weight =1.02/liter (Sp gravity)


• Liter of product = Kg product /Sp gravity
= 20 kg /1.02
= 19.6078 liters
Calculations
• Total volume = 2 m3
• Level came down = 0.6 m3
• Volume required to fill up to 2 m3 =
2 m3 – 0.6 m3 = 1.4 m3
• Required concentration = 1 %
• Product required =1.4 m3 x10000/1000
= 14 kg
= 14 kg/1.02
= 13.725 liter
