Figure 3
The determined fitted power relationships between BODt and time for 60 days of minimum and average BODt values collected from analysis of influents in various selected industrial wastewater treatment plants: (a, b) GGL industrial wastewater treatment plant with k1 @ T = 20°C and k1 @ T = 25°C, respectively; (c, d) Coca-Cola industrial wastewater treatment plant with k1 @ T = 20°C and k1 @ T = 25°C, respectively; and (e, f) Kumasi Abattoir industrial wastewater treatment plant with k1 @ T = 20°C and k1 @ T = 25°C, respectively.
