The titration results are used to calculate and report the acidity levels in the sample as mg/L of calcium carbonate equivalent. High acidity can interfere with water treatment and affect aquatic life.
Here are the steps to solve this problem:
1) Volume of Ag+ solution = 25 mL
Moles of Ag+ = (0.0100 M) * (0.025 L) = 2.5 x 10-5 moles

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.

Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network

C. but waters
containing considerable organic matter or those with pH over 9.0 should be dried at 179-
1810
C. in any case the report should indicate the drying temperature.
The sample is evaporated in weighed dish on a steam bath and then is dried to
constant weight in an oven at either 103-1050
C or 179-1810
C. the increase in weight over
that of the empty dish represents the total solids.
The sample is filtered and the filtrate evaporated in a weighted dish on steam path.
The residue left after evaporation is dried to constant weight in an oven at either 103-1050
or 179-1810
C. the increase in weight over that of the empty dish represents the total
dissolved solids and includes all materials, liquid or solid, in solution or otherwise, which
pass through the filter and not volatilized during the drying process.
The difference between the total solids and the total dissolved solids will give the
total suspended solids.

DETERMINATION OF TURBIDITY
Aim
The aim of the experiment is to determine the turbidity of given sample (s) by
using Jackson Candle turbidity meter and photoelectric turbidity meter.
Principle
Turbidity in water is caused by the presents of suspended matter, such as clay, silt,
finely divided organic and inorganic matter, plankton and other microscopic organisms.
Turbidity should be clearly under stood to be an expression of the optical property of a
sample which causes light to be scattered and absorbed rather than transmitted in straight
line through the sample. Attempts to correlate the turbidity with the weight concentration
of suspended matter are impractical as the size, shape and refractive index of the
particulate materials are of grate importance optically but bear little direct relationship to
the concentration and specific gravity of the suspended matter.
The standard method for the determination of turbidity has been based on the
Jackson Candle turbidity meter. However the lowest turbidity value, which can be
measured on this instrument, is 25 units. With treated water generally falling within the
range of 0.5 units, indirect secondary methods have been required to estimate turbidities on
such samples. Photoelectric turbidity meter is one such instrument.
Turbidity measurements by the candle turbidity meter are based on the light path
through a suspension, which just causes the image of the flame of a standard candle to
disappear, that is, to become in distinguishable against the general background illumination
when the flame is viewed through the suspension. The longer the light path, the lower the
turbidity.
Measurements of turbidity using the photoelectric turbidity meter is based upon a
comparison of the intensity of light scattered by the sample under defined condition with
the intensity of light scattered by a standard reference suspension under same conditions.

JAR TEST FOR DETERMINING COAGULANT DOSAGE
Aim
The aim of the experiment is to determine the optimum coagulant dose for
clarifying the given sample of water by using alum as the coagulant and perform the jar
test.
Principle
Coagulants are used in water treatment plants to
i) Remove natural suspended and colloidal matters
ii) Remove materials which do not settle in plain sedimentation and
iii) To assist in filtration
Alum is the mostly widely used coagulant. Now a days coagulant aids are also
being used in conjunction with alum to reduce the alum does required.
Jar test is a simple device, which will help in determining the optimum coagulant
dose required. It has got its own limitations in spite of the best efforts to simulate treatment
plant conditions in the jar test. It still remain all odds the most valuable economical dosage
for given water. By experience, a plant factor can be found out and after applying to the
coagulant dose obtained by the jar test, the actual dose required for the treatment plant can
be determined. This test is supposed to be conducted as a routine experiment in all the
water treatment plants. The jar test, device consists of a number of stirrers (4 to 6) provide
with paddles. The paddles can be rotated with varying speed with the help of a motor and a
regulator. Samples will be taken in jars or beakers and varying doses of coagulant will be
added simultaneously to all jars. The paddles will be rotated at 100 rpm for 1 minute and at
40 rpm for 9 minutes, corresponding to the flash mixing and slow mixing in the flocculator
of the treatment plant. After 10 minutes setting, supernatant will carefully decant from all
the jars, to measure the turbidity. The dose, which gives the least turbidity, will be taken as
the optimum coagulant dose.

DETERMINATION OF PH
Aim
The aim of the experiment is to determine the pH given sample(s) using pH meter
and also pH paper.
Principle
pH is the logarithm of the reciprocal of the hydrogen ions concentration more
precisely of the hydrogen ion activity in moles/liter. pH enters into the calculation of
carbonate. Bicarbonate and carbon – dioxide, as well as of the corrosion or stability index
and into the control of water treatment process. The practical pH scale extends from 0,
very acidic to 14, vary alkaline, with the middle value (pH7) corresponding to exact
neutrality at 250
C. where as alkalinity and acidity express, the total reserve or buffering
capacity of sample, the pH value represents the instantaneous hydrogen ion activity i.e. the
intensity of acidity or alkalinity.
The pH meter makes use of electrodes for measuring pH of sample. Several types
of electrodes have been suggested for electrometric determination of pH. Although the
hydrogen gas electrode is recognized as the primary standard, the glass electrode in
combination with the reference potent ional provided with saturated calomel electrode is
most generally used. The glass electrode system is based on the fact that a change of 1 pH
unit produces an electrical change of 59.1mv at 250
C.
The pH paper is a specially prepared one, which will show the variation in pH with
different colour changes. The method is suitable for only rough estimation.
Apparatus
1. pH meter with electrodes
2. Buffer solutions
3. Thermometer
4. pH papers or pH colour comparator

17. Procedure
a) Using a pH Meter
1. Follow the manufactures operating instructions.
2. Calibrate the instrument with a buffer solution. (buffer solution is one whose
pH is already known and which will retain that pH for a long time).
3. Dip the electrode in the given sample and note down the instrument reading.
4. Note the pH of the sample along with its temperature.
b) Using pH paper
1. Dip the pH paper in the sample.
2. Compare the colour with that of the colour given on the wrapper of the pH
paper book.
3. Note down the pH of the sample along with its temperature.

treated water supply. It is determined by titration with a standard solution of strong mineral
acid to the successive bicarbonate and carbonic acid equivalence points, indicated
electrometrically or by means of colour. Phenolphthalein indicator enables the

DETERMINATION OF HARDNESS
Aim
The aim of the experiment is to determine the total hardness of the given sample(s)
by
(i) Using soap solution (ii) EDTA Titrimerric Method
Principle
Originally the hardness of water was understood to be a measure the capacity of the
water for precipitating soap. Soap is precipitated chiefly by the calcium and Magnesium
ions, commonly present in water, but may also be precipitated by ions of other polyvalent
metals, such as aluminum, iron, manganese, strontium and zinc and by hydrogen ions.
Because all but the first two are usually present in insignificant concentrations in natural
waters, hardness is defined as a characteristic of water which represents the total
concentration of just the calcium and magnesium ions expressed as calcium carbonate.
However, if present in significant, other hardness producing metallic ions should be
included.
When the hardness is numerically grater than the sum of the carbonate alkalinity
and the bicarbonate alkalinity, the amount of hardness which is equivalent to the total
alkalinity is called Carbonate Hardness, the amount of hardness is excess of this is called
Non- Carbonate Hardness. When the hardness is numerically equal to or less than the sum
of carbonate and bicarbonate alkalinity all of the hardness is carbonate hardness and there
is no non-carbonate hardness. The hardness may range from Zero to Hundreds of
milligrams per liter in terms of calcium carbonate, depending on the source and treatment
to which the water has been subjected.
Ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid and its sodium salts (EDTA) from a chelated
soluble complex when added to a solution of certain meta cations. If a small amount of dye
such as Eriochrome black T is added to an aqueous solution containing calcium and
magnesium ions at a pH of 10 + 0.1, the solution will become wine red. If EDTA is then
added as a titrant, the calcium and magnesium will be complexed. After sufficient EDTA
has been to added to complex all the magnesium and calcium, the solution will turn from
wine red to blue. This is the end point of the titration.

DETERMINATION OF AVAILABLE CHLORINE IN BLEACHING
POWDER AND TEST FOR RESIDUAL CHLORINE
Aim
The aim of the experiment is to determine the available chlorine in the given
sample of Bleaching Powder by using iodometric method and to find the chlorine dosage
for the given sample of water by using ortotolodine method in a chloroscope.
Principle
Bleaching Powder is commonly used as a disinfectant in many small water
treatment plants. To find the exact dose of Bleaching Powder it essential to find out the
amount of available chlorine in the Bleaching Powder sample. As the chlorine present in
Bleaching Powder gets reduced with time, this test should always be conducted before
adding Bleaching Powder to water.
The iodometric method is considered the standard against which other methods are
judged. It provides the means for standardizing the chlorine water used in preparing
temporary standards. Chlorine will liberate free iodine from potassium iodide solutions
when its pH is 8 or less. The liberated iodine is titrated with a standard solution of sodium
thiosulphate, using starch as indicator. The reaction is preferably carried out at pH 3 to 4
The ortotolodine method measures both free and combined available chlorine. To
obtain the correct colour development with chlorine and ortotolodine, (a) the solution must
be at pH 1.3 or lower during the contact period (b) the ratio by weight of ortotolodine to
chlorine must be at least 3:1 and (c) the chlorine concentration must not exceed 10mg./L.
the ortotolodine reacts with chlorine residual and gives yellow colour to the sample. The
intensity of colour formation is proportional to the amount of chlorine residual present.
Usually permanent colour standards representing different values of chlorine residuals will
be prepared and kept ready for comparison.

36. B) DETERMINATION OF SULPHIDES
Aim
The aim of the experiment is to determine the amount of sulphides present in the
sample(s) by T itrimetric (Iodine) method.
Principle
Sulphide is often present in ground water, especially in hot springs an is common in
waste waters, coming in part from the decomposition of organic matter, some times from
industrial wastes, but mostly from the bacterial reduction of sulphate. Hydrogen sulphide
escaping into the air from sulphide containing wastewater causes odour nuisances. The
threshold odour concentration of hydrogen sulphides in clean water is between 0.01 and
0.1/ug/L. H2S is very toxic and has claimed the lives of numerous workmen in sewers. It
attacks metals directly and indirectly has caused serious corrosion of concrete sewers
because it is oxidized biologically to sulphuric acid on the pipe wall.
Iodine reacts with sulphide in acid solution, oxidizing it to sulpher. A titration
based on this reaction is an accurate method for determining sulphide at concentrations
above 1mg/L if interferences are absent and if loss H2S is avoided.

50. B) DETERMINATION OF DISSOLVED OXYGEN
Aim
The aim of the experiment is to determine the quantity of dissolved oxygen present
in the given sample(s) by using modified Winkler (Azide modification) method.
Principle
Dissolved oxygen (D.O) levels in natural and waste waters are depended on the
physical, chemical and biochemical activities prevailing in the water bottle. The analysis of
D.O is a key test in water pollution control activities and waste treatment process control.
Improved by varies in technique and equipment and aided by instrumentation, the
Winkler (or iodometric) test remains the most precise and reliable titrimetric procedure for
D.O analysis. The test is based on in the addition of divalent manganese solution, followed
by strong alkali to the water sample in a glass slopped bottle. D.O present in the sample
rapidly oxides an equivalent amount of the dispersed divalent manganous hydroxide
precipitate hydroxides of higher valency states. In the presents of iodide ions and up on
acidification, the oxidized manganese reverts to the divalent state, with the liberation of
iodine equivalent to the original D.O content in the sample. The iodine is the titrated with a
standard solution of thiosulphate.
Apparatus

to the 300 ml sample taken in the bottle, well below the surface of the surface of
the liquid. ( the pipette should dipped inside the sample while adding the above
two reagents.
2. Stopper with care to exclude air bubbles and mix by inverting the bottle at least
15 minutes.
3. when the precipitates settles, living a clear supernate above the manganese
hydroxide floc, shake again.
4. After 2 minutes of settling, carefully remove the stopper immediately add two ml
conon sulphuric acid by allowing the acid to run down the neck of the bottle.
5. Restopper and mix by gentle inversion until dissolution is compleate.
6. Measure out 203 ml of the solution from the bottle to an Erlenmeyer flask.
7. Titrate with 0.025N sodium thiosulphate solution to a pale straw colour.
8. Add 1 – 2 ml starch solution and continue the titration to the first disappearance
of the blue colour and note down the volume of sodium thiosulphate added (v)
Calculation
Because 1mL of 0.025N sodium thiosulphate solution is equivalent to 0.2mg of D.O

1. Make up a stock solution by shaking 80 to 100g of pure powdered castle
soap with 1 liter or 80% grain alcohol, let stand overnight and decant.
2. prepare a standard calcium solution by dissolving exactly 0.5g of pure
calcium carbonate in about 5ml of 1.3HCL
Add about 40ml of boiled and cooled distilled water and add ammonium
hydroxide until slightly alkaline to litmus. Make up to exactly 500ml with
distilled water ( 1ml =1mg CaCo3)
3. Pipette 25ml of the standard calcium soap solution into a bottle and add
25ml of freshly boiled and cooled distilled water and titrate with the stock
soap solution until a permanent lather is obtained and note ml of stock
soap solution used = k
4. Find the lather factor of the stock soap solution
60
60. 5. Make a standard soap solution so that 1ml = 1mg of CaCO3. the amount of
stock soap solution required to make 1 liter of standard soap solution may
be obtained by using the following formula (K-lather factor) + 40 = ml
stock solution required.

the absence of alternative and better sources, but up to the limits designated,
above which the supply will not be acceptable.
+ + Occasionally, the samples may show an MPN index 3 to 10 per 100 mL provided
this does not occur in consecutive samples. When consecutive samples show an
MPN Index exceeding 8 per 100 mL additional samples should be collected
promptly from the sampling point and examined with out delay. This should be
done daily until the MPN index of samples collected on two successive days is
within the acceptable limits. If necessary, samples should also be taken from
several other points such as the service reservoirs, distribution systems, pumping
stations and treatment plant and examined for coliforms. In addition, the operation
of all treatment processes should be checked and remedial measures taken if
necessary. When the results obtained over a period of one month are considered,
not more than 10% of the samples examined during the period should have shown
an MPN index of coliforms grater than 1 per 100 mL.
