Problem-3 b A town has a population of 40000 and the rate of water supply is 150 litres per capita per day. If 80% of this water is converted into sewage and the soil has a consuming capacity of 50 cum per hectare per day, find the area of land required for disposal. Assume that 50% of the land will be reserved for future expansion.
