2. The average wastewater flow from a community of 20,000 is 125 gpcd. The 5 day, 20 deg C BOD is 250 mg/L. The suspended solids content is 300 mg/L. A final plant effluent of 50 mg/L of BOD is to be achieved through the use of two sets of identical settling tanks and trickling filters operating in parallel. The settling tanks are to be designed to a standard of 1000 gpd/^2. The trickling filters are to be 6^ deep and operated at an organic loading of 55 lbm/1000^3 d. There is no recirculalon.

A storm sewer is mixed into a small stream. The stream before the mixing point has a NaCi concentration of 25 mg/L. If the storm sewer has a Nacl concentration of 1.8 g/L and the storm sewer flowrate is 2.5 L/min, calculate for the concentration of the salt in the stream after the discharge point (mixing point). The stream has a flowrate of 2.6 cu.m/s. Assume a complete mixing of the storm sewer flow and the stream flow. Assume also that the salt is nonreactive and that the system is at steady state.
