2.
Advantages of Chlorination
- Residual chlorine helps in disinfection against further contamination throughout the flow of water through pipes and at the time of usage.
-relatively cheap ,simple,reiable and quick
Disadvantages of Chlorination
-imparts a peculiar taste to the water
-toxic to aquatic life
-chlorine is corosive
3.
Advantages
-stormwater and wastewater are managed together
-use of runoff for wastewater transportation is helpful in water conservation
-moderate costs
-health risk and insect problems are reduced by dilution of wastewater
Disadvantages
-Installation cost is high because of larger size sewers.
-Not suitable for areas of unpredictably varying storms.
-Larger sized and more efficient pump and pipe systems needed.
-Expertise is required for design.
4. Similarity- Sedimentation by gravity is used for settling of matter within a given settling time.
Difference: Primary clarifier mainly removes suspended impurities and in secondary clarifier microbes are removed by settlement.
