Question

Which of the following is the correct expression of the height of chimney emitting sulfur dioxide?

(a) HC = 74 Kp^0.27

(b) HC = 14 Kp^0.33

(c) HC = 14 Kp^0.47

(d) HC = 74 Kp^0.33

This question was posed to me in an interview.

I would like to ask this question from Effects of Air Pollution, Design of Stack Height topic in division Air Pollution of Environmental Engineering

Answer 1

Correct answer is (b) HC = 14 Kp^0.33

For explanation: Height of the chimney, HC = 14 Kp^0.33 when the chimney is emitting sulfur dioxide. Here, the unit of ‘Kp’ is in kg/hour and HC is in metre.
