A stream with a flow of 1.7 m°/s and BOD 3.4 mg/l is saturated with DO (9.27 mg/l at 20°C). It receives a treated effluent discharge from a cocoa processing factory of BOD 6780 kg/day and DO of 5.0 mg/I. The BOD of the stream immediately after mixing is 7.6 mg/l. The DO at a point 36 km downstream is 7.20 mg/l. The average velocity of the stream flow is 0.2 m/s. Determine the flow and the BOD in mg/l of the treated effluent discharged from the cocoa

Question
A stream with a flow of 1.7 m°/s and BOD 3.4 mg/l is saturated
with DO (9.27 mg/l at 20°C). It receives a treated effluent discharge
from a cocoa processing factory of BOD 6780 kg/day and DO of 5.0
mg/I. The BOD of the stream immediately after mixing is 7.6 mg/l.
The DO at a point 36 km downstream is 7.20 mg/l. The average
velocity of the stream flow is 0.2 m/s. Determine the flow and the
BOD in mg/l of the treated effluent discharged from the cocoa
