Design an oxidation pond for treating domestic sewage contributed by 10,000 persons supplied with water at 200 litres per person per day. The BOD and suspended solids are 300 m g/l each. Permissible organic loading for the pond is not less than 500 kg/ha/day. The detention period is not to exceed 6 days. Assume width to length ratio as 1: 2, and operational depth as 1.2 m. Assume any other data. Sewage volume may be taken equal to water supplied.
