1.

Zeolite softening process removes both temporary and permanent hardness of

water.
2. Conventional tertiary treatment is chemical coagulation and flocculation
3. The chemical oxygen demand (COD) measures the amount of oxygen that
would be removed from the water in order to oxidize pollution
4. Hardness of water does not make it unfit for drinking
5. Permanent hard water may be softened by passing it through sodium
hexametaphosphate
6. Temporary hardness of water is caused by the presence of bicarbonates of
calcium and magnesium
7. Secondary treatment uses microorganisms to consume wastes.
8. Permanent hardness of water is caused by the presence of chlorides and
sulfates of calcium and magnesium
9. Acid used mostly for removal of milk stone is nitric acid
10. Which chemical is sometime added in the process of coagulation and
flocculation Aluminum sulphate
11. Which physical method is used as germicidal in modern time for the
treatment of drinking water UV radiation
12. Sanitizer used specifically for vitreous enamel are weak alkali with sodium
silicate
13. The common methods used for disinfection in waste water treatment plants are UV light and
Chlorination
14. Inhibitors are used along with sanitizer to prevent corrosion
15. Biological oxidation processes usually referred as biological treatment, are the
most common form of secondary treatment
16. Sedimentation is a physical process used in wastewater treatment to remove
particles that are more dense than water
17. The ultimate source of water is rain and snow
18. Permanent hardness of water may be removed by the addition of sodium
carbonate
19. Both temporary and permanent hardness of water can be removed on boiling
water with sodium carbonate
20. Temporary hardness of water may be removed by adding calcium hydroxide
21. When temporary hard water is boiled, one of the substances formed is
carbon dioxide
22. Zeolite softening process removes both temporary and permanent hardness
of water. In this process the calcium and magnesium present in water are
precipitated as insoluble zeolites
23. Both temporary and permanent hardness of water can be removed by
distillation
24. Addition of small doses of chlorine gas into filtered water is known as chlorination
25. Water is passed through filter beds of sand and gravel to remove smaller particles of
dust, it is called filtration
