A sewage lagoon that has a surface area of 10 ha and a depth of 1 m is receiving 1.3 MGD of sewage containing 100 mg/L of biodegradable contaminant. At steady state, the effluent from the lagoon must not exceed 20 mg/L of biodegradable contaminant. Assuming the lagoon is well mixed and that there are no losses or gains of water in the lagoon other than the sewage input, what biodegradation reaction rate coefficient (d-1) must be achieved for a first-order reaction? O 0.354 O 0.2 O 0.1 O 0,5
