Q.1.(a) BOD of the sewage incubated for 3 days at 27C is 120mgL. Calculate BODs at 20C and
ultimate BOD. Assume K=0.23 per day (base e) and =1.047.
(b) A 30 cm diameter sewer having an invert slope of 1 in 150 was flowing full. What would be
the velocity of flow and discharge? Consider n=0.013. Is the velocity self-cleansing? What
would be the velocity and discharge when the sewer is running 0.8 times its full depth? For
dD=0.8, the proportionate velocity (vV)=1.14 and proportionate discharge (qQ)=1.067.
(e) A watershed of total area of 18 hectares comprises of upstream non-residential area of 10
hectares and remaining downstream residential area of 8 hectares having existing storm water
drain of 1.8 km in length. The time of concentration for non-residential and residential area
are 22 min and 20 min and overall runoff coefficients are 0.36 and 0.64, respectively. For
rainfall frequency of once in 5 years the intensity duration has relation I=82e-0.02816,
where tc is time of concentration in min and I is mmh. The velocity of flow in existing storm
water drain is 0.90ms. Estimate the design flow for storm water drain for non-residential
area of catchment contributing the storm flow at the entry of the existing storm water drain
and at the end of the 1.8 km of existing length of the drain, when whole catchment is
contributing. What will be design discharge for this drain?
Q.2(a) Determine the head loss through a bar screen when it is cleaned and when 50% of the flow
area is blocked off by the accumulation of floating coarser solids. Consider following
conditions:
Approach velocity =0.6ms;, Velocity through the clear bar rack =0.8ms
Open area for flow through clear bars =0.186m2;
Consider head loss =(10.70)*V2-v22g
(b) Design a horizontal flow grit chamber with rectangular cross section for treating average
sewage flow of 6 MLD and maximum sewage flow of 12 MLD. Consider the settling
velocity of smallest particle to be removed equal to 2.4cmsec and critical horizontal
velocity 22.7cmsec.
(c) What is purpose of providing separate grit chamber and primary sedimentation tank in
sewage treatment plant? State the design guidelines for primary sedimentation tank.
Q.3. Explain the following: (Any three)
i) Describe oxygen sag analysis and state parameters affecting self-purification
ii) Describe different types of Manholes used in sewerage network. State the purpose for
which these are provided.
iii) Describe different variant of activated sludge process used in sewage treatment
iv) Describe MBBR. What advantages it offers over activated sludge process?
v. Sewer shape and materials used for construction.
vi) Describe self-cleansing and limiting velocity for sewer design.
