During chlorination process, aqueous (aq) chlorine reacts rapidly with water to form Cl-, HOCL and H+ as shown below.
Cl2(aq) + H2O ↔ HOCl + Cl- +H+
The most active disinfectant in the chlorination process from amongst the following is:
A settling tank of 4m depth and 80 m long has a flow velocity of water observed as 1.5 cm/sec. What size of particles of specific gravity 2.65 may be effectively removed, if the kinematic viscosity of water is 0.02 cm2/sec, in 4.1 x 10-2 mm?
A water treatment plant of capacity, 1 m3/s has filter boxes of dimensions 6 m x 10 m. Loading rate to the filters is 120 m3/day/m2. When two of the filters are out of service for back washing, the loading rate (rounded off to nearest integer, in m3/day/m2) is______.
