A laboratory provides the following analysis obtained from a 600 mL sample of wastewater: total solids = 350 mg/L, total suspended solids = 210 mg/L, dissolved solids = 10 mg/L, and volatile dissolved solids = 90 mg/L. It was also recorded that the filter mass after drying at 103oC and after ignition at 550oC are 0.23 g and 0.135 g, respectively. Calculate the fixed suspended solids and total dissolved solids.
