Question: A lagoon ( 1 0 0 0 m 3 ) is accepting 1 5 8 5 0 GPM partially treated wastewater stream with a pollutant

A lagoon (1000 m3) is accepting 15850 GPM partially treated wastewater stream with a pollutant concentration of 100 g/m3. This lagoon has another 7925 GPM influent from adjacent river that has no pollutant. 50% of pollutants are biologically removed in the lagoon. To prevent overloading the lagoon, the operator decided to bypass 10% of wastewater flow and have it mixed with effluent (Q3 and C3). Calculate Q3 in GPM and C3 in g/L. Assumptions) Complete mixing, Pollutant is non-conservative. (*No unit)
Q3= GPM; C3= g/m3
