A wastewater treatment plant discharges 1.0 m3/s of effluent having an ultimate BOD of 40 mg/L into a stream flowing at 10.0 m3/s. Just upstream from the discharge point, the stream has an ultimate BOD of 3.0 mg/L. The deoxygenation constant kd is estimated at 0.22/day.

a. Assuming complete and instantaneous mixing, find the ultimate BOD of the mixture of waste and river just downstream from the outfall.

b. Assuming a constant cross-sectional area for the stream equal to 55 m2, what BOD would you expect to final at a point 10,000 m downstream.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
