One of your friends, Siphamandla, was recently hired as an intern at a water treatment plant in SOWETO. Siphamandla is the type of student who thinks CIVN2013 is not an important course, and he did not dedicate sufficient time to go through the concepts covered during the first half of the course. As a result, he often requests your help with some of his work assignments. Yesterday, he told you that he “just found out” that flow equalization may be employed to balance highly fluctuating flows, allow for the dilution of strong wastes, and neutralize strong acids and bases during the processes of water and wastewater treatment. He followed this by telling you that his boss implied that there was another parameter, apart from acidity/basicity, that must be considered when flow equalization is used to neutralize strong bases. Needless to say, Siphamandla had no idea what the other parameter is and he asked you to help him identify it, and, explain why consideration of this parameter is important for effective base neutralization? Please limit your answer to no more than four sentences.
