Find the required surface area of the oxidation pond which is to be provided for sewage treatment in a village of 2000 persons contributing sewage of 80 liters per capita per day (lpcd). The 5-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5) of the sewage is 200 mg/L. The organic loading of the pond is taken as 150 kg/hectare/day.
