A city discharges 130 cusecs of sewage into a river whose minimum rate of flow is
2000 cusecs during its lean days with velocity of 0.5 m/sec. The 5 day BOD at 20°C
for sewage is 250mg/lit and that of river is 1mg/lit. The D.O. of sewage is zero and
that of the stream is 90% of the saturation DO. Find when and where the critical DO
deficit will occur in the downstream portion of the river, and what its amount is?
Assume coefficient of purification of the stream as 4.0 and deoxygenation coefficient
As 0.1.
