MLSS Returned given Ultimate BOD Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate MLSS Returned given Ultimate BOD?

FIRST Step Consider the formula
XR=(Qs(Qi-Qub)BOD5BODu)-O21.42Qw
Next Step Substitute values of Variables
XR=(10m³/s(13.2mg/L-11.91mg/L)1.36mg/L2mg/L)-2.5mg/d1.429.5m³/s
Next Step Convert Units
XR=(10m³/s(0.0132kg/m³-0.0119kg/m³)0.0014kg/m³0.002kg/m³)-2.9E-11kg/s1.429.5m³/s
Next Step Prepare to Evaluate
XR=(10(0.0132-0.0119)0.00140.002)-2.9E-111.429.5
Next Step Evaluate
XR=0.00140627043783239kg/m³
Next Step Convert to Output's Unit
XR=1.40627043783239mg/L
LAST Step Rounding Answer
XR=1.4063mg/L
