Question: ( 5 0 ) 1 . A study has shown that under low flow conditions, the flow in a given stream located at an elevation
A study has shown that under low flow conditions, the flow in a given stream
located at an elevation of feet above will be just above a STP
outfall. The STP discharge will be MGD A laboratory study on a
parts stream water and part effluent mixture sample yielded the following
results Carbonaceous BOD; NBOD Nitrogeneous BOD; TBOD
CBOD NBOD:
Ultimate CBOD
day
Ultimate NBOD
for first days in bottle or stream and day after days
NBO
At a stream temperature of determine the following for
for and for :
a The day CBOD, and the concentration of a sample collected
immediately below the outfall.
b The ultimate CBOD, the ultimate NBOD, the day CBOD, the day
TBOD, and the concentration of a sample collected at a point
days travel time downstream from the outfall.
c The mean velocity in the stream segment downstream from the outfall
which has the following properties: slope i and upstream
drainage basin area sqmi. Under these conditions the stream
velocity may be estimated from the following expression:
: instream discharge drainage basin area
in miday in in cfs in sq
d The atmospheric reaeration coefficient C for the segment by the
Dobins O'Connor model. Assume D is constant for the latter. The
mean depth is Use the velocity determined in part
e The percentage of DO saturation when the stream DO is in the
summer and winter The chloride effect may be neglected.
