A circular lake of diameter 2.5m is receiving wastewater with a flow rate of 25 L/sec from a village has phosphorus concentration of 0.5 mg/L. The lake receives Phosphorus point source concentration of 0.8 g/sec. If the wastewater is completely mixed in the pond and removes phosphorus with a removal rate of 12 m/year, find the concentration of phosphorus (mg/L) in effluent water stream? Assume steady state.
