Problem 3: You are considering three design alternatives for treating a pollutant in wastewater using a first- order process (k = 1.5 min-¹). The flow is 9 million gallons per day (mgd). The three alternatives, each of which has a total volume of 10,000 gallons, are: (1) one 10,000 gallon well-mixed basin; (2) two 5,000 gallon well- mixed basins in series (see sketch below); and (3) one 10,000 gallon pipe. Calculate the percent removal of the pollutant for each alternative at steady state. Which system gives the best removal? Two tanks in series

Apart from evaporation, another cause of water loss in the pond is seepage (water that is lost through the bottom of the pond, through the dikes by infiltration and the drainage system of the pond). If the volume of the pond remains to be 2,000 m3 and water loss due to evaporation remains to be 25 m3 per month, answer the following if the seepage loss is 21 m3 per day: What is the equation that will best represent this problem? What is the total amount of water that will remain in the pond after the whole month of January 2021 has passed?

No wrong answer please. A city with population of 49 x 103 capita in a period of 27 years in advance. The current population is 25 x 103 capita with a daily water consumption of 21 x 103 m³/d. The current and existing water treatment plant (WTP) has design capacity (maximum) of 49 x 103 m/d. Using the arithmetic method in estimating the population of this city, find for how many years will this plant reach its design capacity.
