Independent float: It gives us an idea aboutthe excess time that exists if the preceedingactivity ends as late as possible and thesucceeding activity starts as early aspossible. The independent float is therefore,defined as the excess of minimum availabletime over the required activity duration.

However, humanactivities emit not only NOx to the atmos-phere but also carbon monoxide, thecarbonyl compounds and the hydrocarbons.Carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons by theirreactions with the hydroxyl radical, disturbthe normal NO2 photolytic cycle throughthe formation of peroxy radicals. Theseperoxyl prevents the reaction of O3 withNO, thus terminating the cycle and causingthe O3 to accumulate.

Assumptions made in Terzaghi’s 1-Dconsolidated theory.
1. Compression and flow are directional(vertical).
2. Darcy’s law is valid.3. The soil is homogenous.4. The soil is completely saturated.5. Soil grains and water are both incompres-
sible.6. Strains are small, i.e, the applied load
increment produces virtually no changes inthickness, and K and av remain constant.
7. There is a unique relationship, independentof time, between void ratio and effectivestress.

H+, OCl– and HOCl relate to each otheraccording to the following ionizationreaction, which depends primarily on thepH of the solution.
HOCl H OCl From this reaction, adding H+ on the rightpushes the reaction on the left. This meansthat at lower pH values, more HOCl exists.It has been found that HOCl is a strongerdisinfectant than OCI–. Hence to be moreeffective, the pH of the solution should belowered. At pH 5.5 and below and alltemperatures of 0° to 20°C, the concen-tration of HOCl is practically 10%. At pH <5 chlorine is practically insoluble in water.

In aerobic digestion, because the fractionof volatile matter is reduced, the specificgravity of the digested sludge solids will behigher than it was before digestion. Thus,the sludge settles to a more compact mass,and the clarifier underflow concentration canbe expected to reach 3 percent. Beyondthis, its dewatering properties are terrible.

This is the beginning of a complex seriesof reactions in the atmosphere. Thesereactions disturb the normal NO2 photolyticcycle, leading to the formation of thecomponents of the more complexphotochemical smog. Hydroxyl radical, onceformed, can react with the threecompounds : CO, hydrocarbons andcarbonyl compounds. Thus if only these
three compounds are not present, thephotolytic cycle will not be disturbed andthere will be an absence of photochemicalsmog. The peroxy radicals, the end productof hydroxyl radicals with carbon monoxide,carbonyl or hydrocarbon compounds, arethe ones that react with NO to regenerateNO2, thus terminating the normal NO2cycle, leaving O3 undisturbed and allowingit to accumulate.
