The prime contaminants of sewage water which act as plant nutrient are
Nitrates and Phosphates
Phosphates
Nitrates, DDT
Cadmium and DDT
Thermal wastewater
Eliminates or reduces the number of organisms sensitive to high temperature
May enhance the growth of plants and fish in extremely cold areas
Cause damage to the indigenous flora and fauna
All of these
Integrated waste water treatment means
By utilising only artificial processes
By utilising only natural processes
By utilising both artificial and natural processes
By utilising advanced and more expensive means
An example of integrated waste water treatment comes from
The town of Arcata along northern coast of California and biologist of Humboldt State University
The town of Bangalore and biologist of Humboldt State University
The town of New York along northern coast of California and biologist of Purdue University
The town of Arcata along northern coast of California and biologist Purdue University
The integrated waste water management in Arcata
The conventional sedimentation, filtering and chlorine treatment were performed in first stage
To remove dissolved heavy metal the biologist developed a series of 10 connected marshes
Only bacteria were seeded here in marshland
The second stage of integrated waste water treatment in Arcata
6 Marshlands of 60 hectares
Appropriate plants, algae, fungi and bacteria were seeded into this marshland
Such arrangements actually neutralize, absorb and assimilate the pollutants
FOAM is
A citizens group called Friends of Arcata Marsh, India
Responsible for the upkeep and safeguarding of integrated waste water management project of Arcata
Comes under Government of India
The marshlands of integrated waste water management performs
Sanctuary with a high level of biodiversity in the form of fishes, animals and birds
Appropriate plants, algae, bacteria neutralize, absorb and assimilate the pollutants
Both A and B
Act as ecological sanitation
The EcoSan toilets are working in many areas of
Ecological sanitation is the sustainable system for handling human excreta by means of
Using dry composting toilets
Recycling human excreta into resource as a natural fertilizer
Using toilets which have a connection to the sewage
The dry composting toilets is not
Practical and cost effective approach
Unhygienic and efficient approach
Reduces the reliance on chemical Fertilizer
Which of the following is a substitute for open burning dumps?
Sanitary Landfills
Sanitary sinks
Sanitary dispose house
Sanitary cabinets
Which of the following is not true about sanitary landfills?
Not a complete solution of solid wastes in metro cities
Danger of seepage of the chemicals
Chances of polluting underground water resources
Has three categories on the basis of ease of degradability
Which of the following is a measure of management of solid waste?
Waste can be categorised into three categories- Bio-degradable, Recyclable and Non-biodegradable
Reduction of garbage generation is our prime goal by using milk and water in Polybags
Hospital waste is directly transferred to landfills or open dumps
Hospital waste is disposed
Using incinerators
Using landfills
Using scrubber
Using precipitator
Which of the following statement is not correct?
E-wastes are burried in landfills or incinerated
Over half of the e-wastes generated in the developed world are exported to developing countries mainly to China, India and Pakistan
Developing countries, recycle the waste and recover the metals like Platinum, cadmium and chromium
Developed countries have facilities for recycling of metals from E-waste while developing countries do it manually and expose workers to toxic substances
Ahmed Khan belongs to Bangalore and has been involved in
In a solution of waste water treatment
Solution to ever increasing problem of accumulating plastic waste
Organic Farming
Ozone protection
Polyblend
Polythene
Powdered form of Bitumen
Fine powder of recycled modified plastic
Polyester
Ahmed Khan has been involved in remedy for plastic waste. Which of the following is wrong?
R.V. College of Engineering and Bangalore City Corporation were also involved in the project
They used polyblend and bitumen
Raw material for creating polyblend is any plastic film waste
Used to construct houses in Kerala
Polyblend was used in Ahmed's technique of Remedy of plastic waste and was mixed with bitumen
As it increases the cementing power
As it enhances the bitumen’s water repellent property
As it makes the newly constructed road get easily dry
The addition of polyblend with bitumen increases the water repelling property by a factor of

Using Ahmed Khan's technique, by the year of …….., …….road has been laid in Bangalore.
2000, 80 kms
2002, 40 kms
2009, 20 kms
1995, 50 kms
Inorganic Fertilisers lead to
Toxicity to non target organisms
Toxicity to important components of the soil ecosystem
Eutrophication
Integrated organic farming
Integration of all technique to produce more efficient and better crops
Cyclical zero waste process where products of one process serve as nutrient for another process
Mixing of all types of crops so that one may take out the best out of it without using chemical fertilisers
Ramesh Chandra Dagar, A farmer of Sonipat, Haryana belongs to
Integrated waste water treatment
Solution to solid waste
Chipko Movement
The Haryana Kisaan Welfare Club is established by
Ramesh Chandra Dagar
Ramesh Singh Phogat
Ahmed Khan
Students of RV college of engineering
If one is using a way of integrated organic Farming, then the need of chemical fertiliser is satiated by
Beehives
Cattle excreta
Cow Dung
More than one option
Which of the following is not a problem associated with nuclear energy?
Accidental leakage
Safe disposal of radioactive waste
Global warming
Both A and C
The accidental leakage of nuclear energy occurred in
Three mile Island
Chernobyl Incident
Bangalore
Nuclear waste
Find the wrong one out.
Lethal at high doses
Causes cancer at low doses
Should be stored in the shielded containers buried within rocks about 100m deep
An extremely potent pollutant
