5th Sem Civil Engg.
1. Write short notes on : (a) Tapered aeration process (b) Sewage farming (c) Extended aeration process
2. Write the advantage and disadvantage of oxidation pond. How it differs from aerated lagoon ?
3. Explain in with examples (i) Unit operation and (ii) Unit process.
4. Design a septic tank for 200 persons for wastewater @ 120 lpcd. Also design the soak pit.
5. Using the following data find the amount of critical DO deficit and its location in the downstream
portion of the stream.
River Wastewater
Flow (m3/s) 25 2
DO (mg/l) 9.1 0
BOD5 (mg/l) 2 200
Take deoxygenation constant as 0.1 per day and reoxygenation constant as 0.3 per day. Take
saturation DO as 9.10 mg/l.
6. Design an oxidation pond for hot country with population 6000 and sewage flow of 200 lpcd , with
BOD= 220 mg/l
7. Determine the following for design of an oxidation ditch. (i) Influent rate and influent BOD (ii) Volume
(iii) Volumetric loading rate (iv) Hydraulic loading rate (v) Return sludge ratio. (and also check your
design) for the following data: population = 5000; sewage flow rate = 120 lpcd; organic loading = 40g
BOD/capita/day; permissible BOD of effluents = 20 mg/l.
8. Determine the dimensions of high rate trickling filter for the following data:
(i) Sewage flow = 2.5 MLD; (ii) Recirculation ratio = 1.3; (iii) BOD of the raw sewage = 250 mg/l
(iv) BOD removal in Primary tank = 25 %; (v) Final effluent BOD desired = 30 mg/
