This set of MCQs helps students to learn about sewage filtration and activated sludge process which are the process that involves air or oxygen being introduced into a mixture of screened, and primary treated sewage or industrial wastewater (wastewater) combined with organisms to develop a biological floc which reduces the organic content of the sewage.
