What is the population equivalent of the wastewater flow

Reference no: EM13297255

A wastewater treatment plant has an average flow rate of 25 MGD, and a flow-proportioned average BOD concentration 120 mg/L. How many pounds per day is this? A person produces about 0.17 pounds of BOD per day in fecal waste. What is the population equivalent of the wastewater flow? Based on this calculated population, what would the average daily wastewater production be per person?
