Question: 5 . 1 5 For the community described in Problem 5 . 1 4 , assume that the treatment plant capacity in 2 0 0

5.15 For the community described in Problem 5.14, assume that the treatment plant capacity in
2000 was 35 mgd . If the water use rate in 2015 is 140 gpcd , will expanded treatment facili-
ties be needed by 2015? In about what year would they be needed if so? What reduction in
water use rate would be needed to delay the need for new facilities until 2015? Is a reduc-
tion of this magnitude attainable?
12.19 A dairy that processes about 250,000lb of milk daily produces an average of 65,100gpd of
wastewater with a BOD of 1400mgl. The principal operations are bottling milk and mak-
ing ice cream, with limited production of cottage cheese. Compute the flow and BOD per
1000 lb of milk received, and the BOD and hydraulic equivalent populations of the daily
wastewater discharge.We
