Asphalt Binders and Mixtures

Asphalt binders are subsidiary products procured during the refining process of petroleum while manufacturing gasoline, diesel, and similar petroleum products. Asphalt binders are obtained from the residue that remains after the distillation of petroleum, this residue is further subjected to steam distillation and oxidation to remove the traces of gas oil present in the residue. Certain additives or modifiers are also added to asphalt binders to alter them to suit different applications.

PROBLEM #1 A stream receives a waste outfall which results in oxygen at saturation levels when mixed. The initial condition right after entry of the waste creates a BOD5 of 40 mg/l. KBOD is 0.3/day and KO2 is 1.3/ day. The stream temperature is 12 degrees centigrade. In terms of travel time when does the maximum DO sag occur? What is the minimum DO concentration in the river at the maximum sag point? If the average stream velocity is 3 feet per minute, what is the downstream location of the DO sag minimum relative to the location of the waste stream? Use the relevant equations provided in the textbook to solve this problem. Hint: Consider carefully what was stated in class about the BOD input for this type of problem.
