1. A mixture consisting of 30 mL of waste and 270 mL of seeded dilution water has an initial Do of 8.55 mg/L; after 5 days, it has a final DO of 2.40 mg/L. Another bottle containing just the seeded dilution water has an initial DO of 8.75 mg/L and a final DO of 8.53 mg/L. Find the 5-days BOD of the waste.
Calculate the ultimate BOD of a waste if its BOD5 is 100 mg/L and the K is 0.130 d-1
A metal plating industry produces effluent containing Cu2+, Fe2+, and Ni2+ at concentrations of 25, 25, and 35 mg/L, respectively. The wastewater flow rate averages 290 m3/d. An ion exchanger with a capacity of 3 meq/g is used to remove these metals before discharge of the waste to the sewer. The exchange capacity of the resin on a volumetric basis is 2.0 meq/L. What is the volume of the ion exchanger and the mass of resin in it to remove these ions if the resin is to be regenerated once per week?
