Effluent BOD given Volume of Aeration Tank Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Effluent BOD given Volume of Aeration Tank?

FIRST Step Consider the formula
Qo=Qi-(VX(1+Keθc)YQsθc)
Next Step Substitute values of Variables
Qo=0.48mg/L-(91200mg/L(1+3d⁻¹5d)0.510m³/s5d)
Next Step Convert Units
Qo=0.0005kg/m³-(91.2kg/m³(1+3.5E-5s⁻¹432000s)0.510m³/s432000s)
Next Step Prepare to Evaluate
Qo=0.0005-(91.2(1+3.5E-5432000)0.510432000)
Next Step Evaluate
Qo=0.0004kg/m³
LAST Step Convert to Output's Unit
Qo=0.4mg/L
