b). A wastewater contains 7.2 mg L-1 phosphorus and is treated with 15 mg L-1 aluminum in the form of an alum solution. Assume that phosphorus is precipitated out by Al3+(aq) + PO43 (aq) – AIPO4(s) and that any excess added aluminum forms Al(OH)3. Calculate the mass of inorganic sludge produced in one day in a plant treating 20000 m³ of wastewater.
