For the complete mixed activated sludge system shown below, given S0=400mgL,Q0=400Ls,QR
=150Ls,Vr=1000m3,S1=S2=30mgL,U=2.2510-4mgmg.s,
a) Write a mass balance on substrate under steady-state conditions and derive equations for the concentration
of biomass x in each reactor as a function of the food uptake rate U.
b) Calculate S, in mgL. ANSWER: S=300mgL
c) Calculate x1 and x2, in mg/L. ANSWER: x1=219.3mgL,x2=438.5mgL
