Environmental (121-140)

Updated: Apr 26, 2020

121. The relative stability of a sewage sample, whose dissolved oxygen is same as the total oxygen required to satisfy BOD, is 100

 

122. Dissolved oxygen in streams is maximum at noon


 

123. Facultative bacteria are able to work in presence as well as in absence of

oxygen


 

124. The means of access for inspection and cleaning of sewer line is known as

manhole

 

125. Sewerage system is designed for maximum and minimum flow

 

126. Sewage treatment units are designed for average flow only

 

127. Laying of sewers is usually done with the help of sight rails and boning rods

 

128. Corrosion in concrete sewers is caused by septic conditions

 

129. If the sewage contains grease and fatty oils, these are removed in skimming tanks

 

130. Generally the detention period for grit chambers is kept as 1 minute

 

131. Which of the following unit works in anaerobic conditions'? sludge digestion tank

 

132. Septic tank is a i) settling tank ii) digestion tank

 

133. The maximum efficiency of BOD removal is achieved in oxidation ditch

 

134. The working conditions in imhoff tanks are anaerobic in lower compartment and aerobic in upper compartment

 

135. In facultative stabilization pond, the sewage is treated by dual action of aerobic bacteria and anaerobic bacteria

 

136. The detention period for oxidation ponds is usually kept as 10 to 15 days


 

137. Composting and lagooning are the methods of sludge disposal


 

138. The main disadvantage of oxidation pond is that large area is required for construction

 

139. For satisfactory working of a sludge digestion unit, the pH range of digested

sludge should be maintained as 6.5 to 8.0

 

140. Sludge volume index is defined as the ratio of percentage of sludge by volume to percentage of suspended solids by weight
