Question 1

A factory discharges wastewater into a river at a rate of 10 kg/day. The river's flow rate is 500 m³/day, with a pollutant concentration of 2 mg/m³. Create a mass balance for the river and discuss the implications for downstream water quality.

💡 Hint: Consider both the incoming and existing concentrations to assess impact.

Question 2

Explain how an increase in temperature can affect convection in a body of water and its implications on pollutant transport.

💡 Hint: Think about how heated water behaves compared to cooler water.
