A BOD test is run using 100mL of treated wastewater. The initial DO of the mixture after diluting the waste sample with distilled water is 9.0mg/L. After 5-day incubation, the DO measured was 4.0mg/L. After a long period of time, the DO is 2.0mg/L and no longer seems to be decreasing. Assume that nitrification has been inhibited. Determine the following: a)BOD5 & BODu of the waste sample b) BOD5 of the mixture and c) k   THANK YOU
