treatment and waste water treatment process. Does the use of SCADA provide a noticeable
cost savings (e.g., reduction in staff time to necessary to maintain operations, reduction in
material/ energy consumption, etc.) in annual operating expenses?
8.a) No other natural resource is as significant to life and business as water. Not only is water L4 10
essential for human life, but it also plays a central role in many industrial operations.
Conserving it is crucial. Consequently, the benefits of automated water treatment are
becoming increasingly appealing. List the benefits of automation in water treatment industry.
b) Over 75% of the waste we generate is recyclable but we, in India, recycle just 30%. It is time L4 10
for the nation to wake up and start taking waste management seriously because if this issue
is ignored any further then by 2030 we will need a landfill as big as Bengaluru to dump all the
waste. According to the Central Pollution Control Board, less than 15% of the municipal solid
waste generated is processed or treated. What are the best ways to convert waste to wealth?

persons per hectare and the water is supplied at the rate of 175 liters per capita per day,
what would be the design flow for a combined sewer? Take intensity of rainfall equal to 30
mm/hour, average runoff co0efficient equal to 0.50 and only 75% of water supplied
contributes to the sewage. Also, peak discharge factor should be taken as 3.0
