Explanation:

Relative stability:

The ratio of oxygen available in the wastewater (as dissolved oxygen) to the total oxygen required to satisfy its first state BOD is called relative stability.

\(Relative\;stability\; = \;\frac{{BOD\;removed}}{{Total\;BOD}} \times 100\)

Note:

As the DO level of the sewage is equal to the total oxygen required to decompose the organic matter present, total BOD will be removed.

∴ Relative stability = 100%
