    • A.

      Scrap yard

    • B.

      E-waste scrap yard

    • C.

      Metal scrap yard

    • D.

      Construction wastes scrap yard

    Correct Answer
    D. Construction wastes scrap yard
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Construction wastes scrap yard" because it specifically mentions "brick, concrete, and soil debris" which are commonly generated during construction projects. This option is the most appropriate place to store these types of construction waste materials. The other options, such as "scrap yard" or "metal scrap yard," do not specify construction waste and may not be suitable for storing these types of materials.

    Maximum limit of industrial effluent generation for SRI as per TNPCB is

    • A.

      100KLD

    • B.

      101 KLD

    • C.

      104KLD

    • D.

      108KLD

    Correct Answer
    C. 104KLD
    Explanation
    The maximum limit of industrial effluent generation for SRI as per TNPCB is 104KLD. This means that industries in the SRI region are allowed to generate up to 104 kiloliters per day of effluent. Any effluent generation beyond this limit would be considered non-compliant with the TNPCB regulations.

    Which of the following is not an air pollution control systems?

    • A.

      Scrubber in Polymer block and M Block

    • B.

      Dust collectors in Silo area

    • C.

      Process vents in Day tanks

    • D.

      Stacks in Boiler and DGs

    Correct Answer
    C. Process vents in Day tanks
    Explanation
    Process vents in day tanks are not considered air pollution control systems because they are used for releasing excess pressure or vacuum in the tanks, rather than controlling air pollution. Air pollution control systems are designed to remove or reduce pollutants from the air, such as scrubbers that remove pollutants from gas streams, dust collectors that capture and remove particulate matter, and stacks that release exhaust gases safely into the atmosphere.

    Which of the following component in the effluent add upto chemical sludge generation from SRI?

    • A.

      TSS - Total suspended soilds

    • B.

      TDS - Total dissolved solids

    • C.

      COD - Chemical oxygen demand

    • D.

      PH

    Correct Answer
    A. TSS - Total suspended soilds
    Explanation
    Total suspended solids (TSS) refers to the solid particles that are present in the effluent and are unable to settle down. These solid particles can come from various sources such as organic matter, inorganic matter, or biological matter. When these solid particles are not effectively removed from the effluent, they can contribute to the generation of chemical sludge. Chemical sludge is formed when these solid particles react with chemicals present in the effluent, leading to the formation of a sludge-like substance. Therefore, TSS is the component in the effluent that adds up to chemical sludge generation from SRI.

    Reverse osmosis plants (RO2 and RO4) is used to remove which of the following component in the effluent treatment

    • A.

      TSS

    • B.

      TDS

    • C.

      COD

    • D.

      BOD

    Correct Answer
    A. TSS
    Explanation
    Reverse osmosis plants (RO2 and RO4) are used to remove Total Suspended Solids (TSS) in the effluent treatment process. TSS refers to solid particles that are suspended in water and can cause water pollution. Reverse osmosis is a filtration process that uses a semipermeable membrane to remove impurities and particles from water. By applying pressure, water molecules are forced through the membrane, leaving behind the TSS particles and other contaminants. Therefore, the correct answer is TSS.
