11 Explain different methods used for prediction of future population of a city, with BL2(CO1)
reference to the design of a water supply system.
[OR]
12 a) Explain the fire demand of a locality in detail. BL4(CO1)
b) Examine the standards of potable water. BL2[5+5]
13 a) What do you mean by treatment of water? What are the objectives of treatment of BL1(CO2)
water?
b) Draw a flow chart of a city water supply scheme indetail. BL3[5+5]
[OR]

P.T.O
14 a) Estimate the alum and quick lime requirements with reactions involved to treat BL4(CO2)
2MLD of water, with raw water alkalinity of 9mg/l as CaCO3 if the alum dosage
adopted was 40 mg/l (purity of quick lime =80%)
b) What are the factors influencing settling of discrete particle? BL1[5+5]
15 State the methods of water distribution system and explain them with neat BL2(CO3)
diagrams
[OR]
16 Explain the process of BL2(CO3)
a) Nalgonda Technique
b) Reverse Osmosis BL2[5+5]
17 A grit chamber is designed to remove particles with a diameter of 0.2mm, specific BL5(CO4)
gravity 2.65 settling velocity for these particles has been found to range from
0.016 to 0.022 m/sec, depending on their shape factor. A flow through velocity of
0.3m/sec will be maintained by proportioning weir. Determine the channel
dimensions for a maximum waste water flow of 10,000 cum/day.
[OR]

[OR]
20 a) Sketch and describe the construction and working of a Oxidation pond. BL4(CO5)
b) Explain the various advances in the treatment of sludge and mode of disposal. BL3[5+5]
