A tannery discharges wastewater into a river under the following conditions: Parameter Wastewater River 1.148 Flow (m/s) BOD, at 15°C (mg/L) DO (mg/L) Temperature, Speed (m/s) Depth (m) 1.00 15.0 7.222 7.66 6.00 15.0 0.300 2.92 The BOD rate constant, k, in the river/wastewater mixture is measured as 0.379 d at 20°C. Deter- mine the ultimate BOD (in kg/d) that the tannery may discharge and still keep the DO in the minimum DO in the river above 5 mg/L.
The Big Bear town council has asked that you determine whether the discharge of the town's wastewater into the Salmon River will reduce the DO below the state standard of 3.00 mg/L. The DO at saturation at 28 C is 7.81 mg/L. The other pertinent data follow. (16 pts) 2.
