How many liters of methanol would be required daily to remove the nitrogen from a 200,000-L/day sewage treatment plant producing an effluent containing 50 mg/L of nitrogen? Assume that the nitrogen has been converted to NO3- in the plant. The density of CH3OH is 0.791 kg/L. The denitrifying reaction is: 6 NO3- + 5 CH3OH + 6 H+ (Denitrifying bacteria) → 3 N2(g) + 5 CO2 + 13 H2O
