A rapidly mixed tank consists of a treatment unit used to disinfect a solution. The solution enters the 2000 m3 tank at a rate of 0.4 m3/s. The pollutant contains 7.94 CFU per liter and has no 0 mg/l of chlorine. The treatment unit uses a stock solution containing 750 mg/L which is released a rate that will cause the chlorine concentration in the tank to be 2 mg/L. The chlorine reacts with the water in such a way that it is depleted at a rate (in mg/L-h) given by rcl = ( -0.45 / h) Caı.

At a small water treatment plant which has 4 filters, the rates of filtration and backwashing are 200 m³/d/m² and 1000 m³/d/m² respectively. Backwashing is done for 15 min per day. The maturation, which occurs initially as the filter is put back into service after cleaning, takes 35 min. It is proposed to recover the water being wasted during backwashing and maturation. The percentage increase in the filtered water produced (up to two decimal places) would be
