What is the value of BOD of industrial sewage in kg/day, given population equivalent as 6000 persons?
Show Hint
- 480
- 160
- 270
- 100
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
- The BOD of industrial sewage can be calculated using the population equivalent, where the BOD value per person is typically around 0.08 kg/day.
- Therefore, for 6000 persons, the BOD will be \( 6000 \times 0.08 = 480 \) kg/day.
Conclusion: The BOD of industrial sewage is 480 kg/day, as given by option (A).
