Question: If wastewater containing the four component streams a , b , c , and d , as tabulated below, is to be treated at a

If wastewater containing the four component streams a, b, c, and d, as tabulated below, is to be treated at a single plant, what secondary and, if necessary, tertiary unit operations do you think will be necessary to treat it to effluent levels of BOD5=20 mg/L, SS =20 mg/L, and P =1 mg/L? How would you prefer to have these unit operations lined up? Provide reasons for your answer. One sentence should be sufficient to defend each (unit operation) pick, and two to three sentences should be sufficient to defend the proposed line-up.Given information; A. Domestic waste: BOD =200 mg/L , SS =200 mg/L, P =10 mg/LB. Chemical Industry waste: BOD =40000 mg/L, SS =0 mg/L, P =0 mg/LC. Pickle Cannery: BOD =0 mg/L , SS =300 mg/L, P =1 mg/LD. Fertilizer mfg: BOD =300 mg/L , SS =300 mg/L, P =200 mg/LIf each stream were to be treated alone, to meet the effluent criteria given previously, what secondary and, if necessary, tertiary unit operations do you think will be necessary to treat it and why? Again, a single-sentence explanation would suffice.
