Population equivalent is a parameter used in the conversion of the contribution of wastes from industrial establishments for accepting into sanitary sewer systems. The strength of industrial sewage is, thus, written as;

Std. BOD5 = (Std. BOD5 of domestic sewage per person per day) x (population equivalent).

Population= .1 * 100 = 1000.
