Environmental Engineering - Water and Wastewater Treatment

The 2.4 ml of raw sewage is diluted to 240 ml. The Dissolved Oxygen (DO) of the diluted sample at the beginning of Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) test was 8 mg/l and it was 6 mg/l after 5-day incubation at 20 ° C. The B...

In the context of water and wastewater treatments, the correct statements are:

The theoretical aerobic oxidation of biomass (C5H7O2N) is given below: C5H7O2N + 5O2 → 5CO2 + NH3 + 2H2O The biochemical oxidation of biomass is assumed as a first-order reaction with a rate constant of 0.23/d at 20°C (l...
