Scenarios 1: Characterize the differences among untreated‚ primary-treated‚ and secondary-treated sewage and compare and explain the effects of dumping each type on the eutrophication of a pond and a fast-moving river. Answer 1: The general idea of wastewater treatment plants is to decrease the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) in the runoff into the lakes and streams‚ and do so by meeting the standards of the state and federal government.
