Q. Question CO BL
No.
1 Distinguish separate and combined sewerage pipelines. I 2
2 Explain the Drop Mainhole and Lamp-hole sewer appurtenances with few highlighting points used I 2
in sewer pipe network.
3 Design a Sewer running 0.8 times full at maximum discharge, serve a city having population I 3
100,000 persons. For this city per capita water demand is 230 litres per day. The sewer is to be laid
at a slope of 1 in 600. Assume manning’s rugosity coefficient ‘N’ is 0.013 for all depths of flow and
peak factor of 3.0.
4 Explain the first stage and second stage BOD in a given wastewater sample analyses. II 2
5 Write explanatory notes on Carbon cycle. II 1
6 A dairy processing about 1,33,000 kg of milk daily produced an average of 246 cubic meter per day II 3
of wastewater with a BOD of 1400 mg/l. the principal operations are bottling milk and making ice-
creams with limited production of cheese. Compute the wastewater flow and BOD per 1000 kg of
milk received and the equivalent population of the daily waste discharge. C.C. the ‘k’ value is
known to be 0.23 per day. What would be BOD8 be, if the test is run at 157 The BOD5 of
wastewater is 180 mg/l at 20 degree Celsius.
7 Explain the working Principle of Grit chamber with its neatly cross-section drawing. III 3

8 Explain various types of settling in a settling tank. III 2

9 Design a single stage Bio filter to produce an effluent having maximum BOD concentration of 50 III 3
mg/l for a flow of sewage of 4 million liters per day containing BOD of raw sewage of 320 mg/l .
make suitable assumptions.
10 Draw a layout with brief explanation of each unit of Sequential Batch Reactor of a waste water IV 2
treatment plant.
11 Distinguish ASP and Trickling filter working with neatly drawing units. IV 2
12 Design Municipality Activated Sludge treatment unit in terms of design parameters like Aeration IV 3
periods, F/M ratio, % efficiency of BOD removal and sludge age with given following data:
Wastewater flow: 35000 m3/d; volume of aeration tank: 10900 m3, InfluentBOD:250mg/l;
Effluent BOD:20mg/l; Mixed liquor suspended solids: 2500mg/l; Effluent Suspendedsolids:30mg/l;
waste sludge suspended solids:9700mg/l; Quantity
ofwastesludge:220 m3/d.

13 Write a short note on Diatomaceous earth filter. V 1

14 Briefly explain Activated carbon unit of wastewater treatment plant. V 1
15 List out various advanced techniques of wastewater treatment plant. V 2
