Question:
A coal washery discharges 300 m3/day of contaminated water in a stream having a flow rate of 0.04 m3/s. The DO level of the stream and the contaminated water are 8.5 mg/L and 4 mg/L, respectively. Neglecting the impact of temperature, the resultant DO, in mg/L, of the stream just after mixing is_____.(round off up to 2 decimals)

Top Questions on Air, water and soil pollution: Dispersion of contamination
- CO is released from a point source on a level ground at a rate of 25 g/s. The average wind speed is 5 m/s. The dispersion coefficients are 150 m and 200 m in horizontal and vertical directions, respectively, at a receiver station located on the ground along the downwind direction. Assuming the plume follows Gaussian dispersion model, the concentration of CO, in \, \mu g/m^3 at the station is \(\underline{\hspace{2cm}}\) (round off to 2 decimal places).
