Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A pollutant with an emission factor of 2.5 g/m³ is released into a lake at a rate of 300 m³/day. If the lake has a volume of 100,000 m³, how long will it take before reaching a concerning concentration assuming no outflow?
💡 Hint: Focus on steady-state conditions and conversions.
Analyze the dispersion of a pollutant emitted from a source at a known stability class A. How would the equation change if the stability class changes to D during the day?
💡 Hint: Consider how the environmental conditions change throughout the day.
