Question

A BOD test is run using 30 mL of wastewater and 270 mL of dilution water. The initial DO of the mixture is 9.0 mg/L. After 5 days, the DO is 4 mg/L. After 30 days, the DO in the bottle is 2 mg/L and it now longer seems to be dropping. At the beginning of the test, we added a nitrification inhibitor so we can assume that the nitrification is not occurring. Thus, the only BOD being measured is carbonaceous BOD
a) What is the BODs of the wastewater?
b) What is the ultimate carbonaceous BOD?
c) How much BOD remains after 5 days?
d) Based on the data above, estimate the reaction rate constant k (1/day)
