a. To measure the BOD₅ of a wastewater, three dilutions are prepared. The data for the tests are provided below. What is the BOD of the wastewater?

Wastewater (mL)	DO t = 0	DO t = 5 days
5	9.2	4.8
8	9.1	3.2
10	9.1	1.8

b. The BOD₅ of a wastewater is estimated to be 75 mg/L at standard temperature. The k value is 0.150 day^-1 at standard temperature. What is the ultimate BOD?

9. The following data are given for an activated sludge process: BOD5 (influent) = 250 mg/L (soluble) BOD5 (effluent) = 20 mg/L (soluble) MCRT = 10 days MLSS in the aeration tank = 2500 mg/L Concentration of SS in the recycle line = 10,000 mg/L Concentration of SS in the effluent = 30 mg/L (70% biodegradable) BOD5/BODu = 0.75, No nutrient limitations. Yield co-efficient, Y = 0.65 Endogenouse decay coefficient, kd = 0.06/day , Q=5MGD Determine: (a) Find soluble BOD5...

You are given the following 10-5 plaque counts from three different serial dilutions (a, b and c). For each, fill in the table to show how many plaques you would estimate you would find on the plates with the dilution factors listed (10-6, 10-7, etc.) AND identify the dilution (ranging from 10-5 to 10-9)where theoretically the results should become untrustworthy (too few to count for a reliable titer calculation). 10-5 plaque count 10-6 10-7 10-8 10-9 55 5...

Conduct a descriptive data analysis that includes the following: a measure of central tendency a measure of dispersion at least one graph Briefly interpret the descriptive data analysis. Conduct the appropriate statistical test that will answer your hypothesis. It must be a statistical test covered in this course such as regression analysis, single t-test, independent t-test, cross-tabulations, Chi-square, or One-Way ANOVA. Explain your justification for using the test based on the type of data and the level of measurement. Report...
