matter
(BOD)

unit
operation
is
located
before
the
micro-‐screen?
a. Nothing,
the
micro-‐screen
it
the
first
unit
operation
of
the

b. A
coarse
screen
c. A
fine
screen
d. Aerobic
tank
7. Due
to
the
fact
that
sieving
contains
a
high
percentage
of
cellulose
from
the
recovered
toilet
paper,
which
of
the
following
are
possible
treatment/disposal
options
for
the
recovered
sieving
from
a
micro-‐
screen?
Incineration
Extraction
of
nutrients
Extraction
of
cellulose
fiber
On-‐site
digestion
for
energy
recovery
8. What
problems,
if
not
removed,
would
course
screening
materials
cause
in
the
downstream
treatment
process?
Clogging
the
pumps
and
mains
Disrupting
the
biological
treatment
process
Forming
floating
layers
in
the
digestion
tanks
9. How
are
screens
normally
cleaned?
a. High
pressure
water
hose
b. Screenings
are
manually
collected
c. Raked
bar
screen
d. High
pressure
air
cleaning
10. What
parameters
influence
the
resistance
that
the
screen
creates
against
the
water
flow?
Velocity
The
form
Thickness
of
the
screen
bars
Distance
between
screen
bars
Screen
angle
Amount
of
contamination
in
wastewater
All
of
the
parameters
mentioned
11. Which
flow
do
you
use
when
designing
a
bar
screen?
a. Dry
weather
flow
b. Wet
weather
flow
12. Polluting
organic
substances
can
be
removed
by
a
fine
sieve.
a. True
b. False
13. Why
is
screen
debris
covered
or
stored
in
a
separate
building?
a. Due
to
the
large
volume
of
debris,
a
separate
building
is
required
for
storage
b. For
safety
reasons
-‐
to
minimize
contact
between
operators
and
screen
debris
c. For
odor
control
-‐
to
minimize
the
release
of
foul
odors
from
the
screen
debris
correct
d. For
litter
control
-‐
to
prevent
the
screen
debris
blowing
away
in
the
wind
14. Determine
the
head
loss
(hL)
across
the
bar
screen
if:
The
screen
is
clean.
If
50%
of
the
screen
is
blocked.
Known
Parameters:
15. Dimension
the
following
pre-‐treatment
unit
for
a
WWTP
receiving
a
dry
weather
flow
(dwf)
of
24,000
m3/day
(Assume
that
flow
doubles
during
rain).
a. A
bar
screen
is
used
to
remove
the
coarse
waste.
The
rwf
velocity
in
the
screen
channel
(v)
is
0.5
m/s
and
flow-‐through
velocity
of
the
clean
screen
(V)
is
0.8
m/s.
Calculate
the
required
open
screen
area
for
reaching
this
screen
velocity
during
treatment
of
the
rain
weather
flow.
b. Calculate
the
head
loss
of
this
clean
screen
using:
The
friction
coefficient
(C)
for
a
clean
screen
is
0.7.
c. The
above
screen
is
partly
clogged.
The
maximum
head
loss
that
is
allowed
in
the
screen
channel
is
0.15
m.
Take
the
impact
of
clogging
on
the
friction
factor
into
account
with
the
calculation.
Calculate
the
maximum
clogging
allowed
before
the
screen
needs
to
be
cleaned.
