Algae
Microscopic plants that live floating or suspended in water and they contain chlorophyll
What is... Algae
What does thermally mean?
Temperature
O2
Oxygen
Selective destruction of pathogenic organisms
Disinfection
Capacity check for a confined aquifer
Every 24 hours
Sudden and massive growths of algae in lakes or reserviors
Algal Bloom
What does the term stratified mean?
Identifiable layers
Atmospher contains little to no dissolved oxygen
Anaerobic
Chlorine gas+ organics=
DBPs or disinfection by products (TTHM/ HAA5)
Static water level- pumping level (after pump is ran)
Drawdown
Blue- green algae that poses a risk to healthy plants and animals
Cyanobacteria
The uppermost layer of water that is the warmest layer
Process where oxygen is added to the water to remove or modify a component in water
Aeration
Which treatment process includes the addition of coagulant chemicals, flash mixing, coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, and filtration
Complete or Coventional Treatment
Examples of consolidated formations
Limestone or volcanic rock (anything that doesn't allow water to flow freely through/ causes contamination)
Algae that has a cucumber smell
Synura
Layer where water is considered anaerobic
Hypolimnion/ Profundal zone
Phenomenon that takes place in source water where the water contains little to no nutrients but an abundance of dissolved oxygen
Oligotrophic
A Jar Test
Unconfined aquifer sits:
at the water table
What can cause the eutrophic phenomenon to take place?
Wastewater systems not going through the proper denitrification process/ high nitrites/ nitrates
Layer where the temperature is constantly changing
Thermocline/ Metalimnion
What range does oxygen need to be in before confined space entry?
19.5-23.5%
Which treatment process follows the same process of conventional treatment but omits sedimentation?
What is a layer of porous water bearing material that usually is capable of yield or producing a large amount or supply of water?
Aquifer
