A thermoelectric plant uses a pump system that draws 27 ft3 / sec from a river, which in turn has a flow of 186 ft3 / sec. Downstream the river receives a discharge from a treatment plant with a flow of 16 ft3 / sec. The chlorine concentration upstream of the discharge and in the effluent of the treatment plant is 0.051 and 8.9 mg / l, respectively. Determine the concentration of chlorine in the river after completely mixing the flows. Provide a drawing of the exposed process and the mass balance

A wastewater treatment plant discharges total phosphorus in its effluent throughout the year into a nearby river. The treatment plant produces flows of 6 MGD with a total phosphorus concentration of 4.0 mg/L. The receiving river has an upstream flow of 200 ft3/sec and a background concentration of total phosphorus of 0.3 mg/L. Determine the concentration (in mg/L) of total phosphorus in the river at a point downstream of the effluent location.

Problem #3: Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Stream Quality A wastewater treatment plant designed for a community of 45,000 people has a flow of 100 gal/person/day and a BOD5 loading of 0.2 lb/person/day. The upstream characteristics of the receiving waters are: stream flow rate = 20 cfs and BOD5 = 2 mg/L The water quality standards require the in-stream BOD5 to be less than 7 mg/L in this stretch of the river. The minimum BOD removal efficiency that the treatment...
