A shallow pond has a volume of 1000 m3. The inflow and outflow to the pond have constant flow rates of Q = 1m3s-1. Excavation near the pond causes a slug of sediment-laden water to enter the pond directly at the inlet. The slug volume is V1 = 1 m3 and the slug’s sediment concentration is C1=10 gm-3. As the sediment moves through the pond it is lost through deposition to the bed following a first-order reaction with rate constant k=10-3 s-1. You withdraw water for your home use at the outflow.Assume there is minimal circulation in the pond and it acts as a perfect plug flow reactor. Describe the sediment load observed in your drinking water (i.e., at the outlet), by answering the following questions:a. What is the peak concentration of sediment (gm-3) in your drinking water?b. At what time after the release does the peak concentration reach the outlet?c. If the detection limit is 0.5 mg/m3, for how long would you find sediment in your drinking water?
