For this question do not use units in your answer.
Background pollution is 40 ppm, pollution from source 1 is so 1=100 tons and source 1 has a transfer coefficient of a1= 0.2 ppm/ton. Pollution from source 2 is so.2=200 tons and source 2 has a transfer
coefficient of a2= 0.2 ppm/ton.
What is current pollution at the receptor?
ppm
If MC (A1)=15A1 and MC2(A2)=6A2, and the goal is to reduce ambient pollution down to 53 ppm. How much should fırm 1 abate?
