1、Designation: E2717 11Standard Practice forEstimating the Environmental Load of ResidentialWastewater1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E2717; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revisi

2、on. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice provides a set of instructions for estimat-ing the environmental load of residential water, as it isdischarged from

3、 a residence. The environmental load is calcu-lated based on the number and type of fixtures in the home, thecommon household chemicals used, and the number of peoplein the home. While the format is broadly applied internation-ally, the parameters stated herein reflect North Americanaverages and wou

4、ld need to be modified if used elsewhere.1.1.1 Averages MethodThe Averages Method provides anestimate of the annual environmental load for the average U.S.single-family home based on 2000 U.S. Census and 2007U.S. Census Data and U.S. EPA/625/R-00/008 characterizationof residential wastewater flows.1

5、.1.2 Unique Product Parameters MethodThe UniqueProduct Parameters Method provides an estimate of the annualenvironmental load, where the home/product parameter valuesare the same as those used for the Averages Method except forestimated amounts of chemical contaminants listed in Table 1or average to

6、tal annual use of products as listed in Table 1,orboth.1.1.3 Adjusted Averages MethodThe Adjusted AveragesMethod provides an estimate of the annual environmental load,where home/product parameter values differ from those usedfor the Averages Method, except that chemical contaminantsassociated with p

7、roducts do not vary. (Table 1 remains thesame for: Typical Water Contaminants, Estimated Amount ofContaminant in Product (%), and the Percent Waste.)1.1.4 Additional/Alternative Chemicals MethodTheAdditional/Alternative Chemicals Method provides an esti-mate of the annual environmental load, of chem

8、icals used thatare not listed in Table 1.1.1.5 The Unique Product Parameters Method, AdjustedAverages Method, and Additional Chemicals Method may beused in combination with each other.1.2 Instructions are provided for a single-family home.Estimates may be expanded to an aggregate number ofsingle-fam

9、ily homes by assuming an average home size andmultiplying by the number of homes. Estimates may beadapted to multi-unit residential buildings by factoring thehome parameters for size, occupancy, and fixtures as necessary.1.3 For the purpose of this practice, environmental loadrefers to chemical cont

10、aminants that may be dissolved orsuspended in water.1.3.1 Estimates of environmental load do not include or-ganic matter common for urine, feces, and vomit.1.3.2 Estimates of environmental load do not include bulkfood waste such as kitchen scraps.1.3.3 Estimates of environmental load do not include

11、bulkcellulose waste such as toilet paper.1.3.4 Actual environmental load may vary depending ontypes and amounts of chemicals used in a specific home and thenumber of people in the home.1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. No other units of measurement are included

12、 in thisstandard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to us

Summary of Practice4.1 This practice estimates the annual environmental load,exclusive

29、 of biological waste, food waste, and paper waste, onwastewater for an average home in the U.S.4.1.1 This practice may be used to estimate the environmen-tal load of a specific residential building by utilizing specifichome parameters (such as the number of people, the totalsquare footage of the hom

30、e, types/quantity of fixtures) andspecific product parameters (such as type and quantity), or bymodifying the percentage factors for product usage listed inTable 1, or by a combination thereof.4.2 This practice may be used to estimate the environmentalload attributable to a residential area by multi

31、plying theenvironmental load calculated for an average single-familyhome by the number of single-family homes in the residentialarea. If multi-unit residences are included in the residentialarea, additional modification will be necessary to factor size,number of fixtures, and occupancy rates.5. Sign

32、ificance and Use5.1 There is increasing concern regarding water quality. Thefirst national-scale U.S. examination of these organic waste-water contaminants in streams, conducted by the Toxic Sub-stances Hydrology Program of the U.S. Geological Survey(USGS), indicated that a broad range of chemicals

33、found inresidential, industrial, and agricultural wastewaters commonlyoccurs in mixtures at low concentrations downstream fromareas of intense urbanization and animal production.

38、s (calcium,magnesium,manganese, iron,and others)0.218 lb sand filter backwash n/a 100AIncludes various oxides of aluminum.BHuman adults urinate about 1-2 liters a day. 5 % of the volume of normal urine contains solutes. Some solutes are formed from normal biochemical activity within thecells of the

39、body. Other solutes are the results of chemicals that originated outside of the body, such as pharmaceuticals. For average dosage of four pills daily, 2 litersof urine a day could contain up to 0.002 lb of active pharmaceuticals. Then in one year, a human may pass 0.73 lb of pharmaceuticals. The ann

40、ual average amount ofpharmaceuticals passed through urine for a residence is: 1.87 lb.CThe average chemical concentration of pool water, for one pool, is calculated with consideration to the total amount of pool water that can flow into city lines duringa backwash procedure (reverse flow). The total

41、 amount of flow reversed depends on three parameters: filter size, flow rate, and duration of time for a backwash. The threemost common swimming pool filters are: sand filters, diatomaceous earth filters, and cartridge filters. A backwash procedure is often implemented for pools with a sandfilter or

42、 diatomaceous earth filter.The following are average values used in calculating the average chemical concentrations for a sand filter:filter size: 2.68 square feetflow rate: 13.5 gallons / square foot / minuteduration: 3 minutesMultiplying these three parameters gives the average amount of reverse f
