(15 points) To remove the solution containing metal from a part after metal plating the part is
commonly rinsed with water. This rinse water is contaminated with metal and must be treated
before discharge. The Shiny Metal Plating Co. uses the process flow diagram shown in the below
Figure. The plating solution contains 85gL of nickel. The parts drag out 0.05Lmin of plating
solution into the rinse tank. The flow of rinse water into the rinse tank is 150Lmin. Write the
general mass balance equation for the rinse tank and estimate the concentration of nickel in the
wastewater stream that must be treated. Assume that the rinse tank is completely mixed and that
no reactions take place in the rinse tank.
