#Kor-watering:-
The first watering given to the crop when it has grown a few centimeters is called Kor-Watering of Crops

The Optimum depth of kor-watering is:-
1)19 cm for Rice,
2)13.5 cm for Wheat and
3)16.5 cm for Sugarcane.

Paleo (Paleva):-
The first watering before sowing the crop is called Paleo.

Base Period:-
Time Between First And Last Watering

Crop Period:- Time Between Sowing and Harvesting of Crop.

Reservoir Capacity for a given Demand is obtained from Mass Inflow Curve

Clover Leaf Cofferdam Belongs to Cellular Type

Head Loss through the Siphon Barrels is Calculated by,
Unwin's Formula...Unwin's Formula is generally used to Calculate the Afflux

Canal Escapes serve as a Purpose of 'Safety Valve'

Aqueduct(It's like Bridge):-
Canal over a Natural Drain

Super Passage:-
Natural Drain over the Canal

Level Crossing:-
Natural Drain and Canal at Same level.

Syphon Aqueduct:-
Constructed where the H.F.L of Natural Drain is Higher than the Canal Bed

Defective Air Circulation in
Plant's root zone is an Effect of Water Logging

Water Logging means when the Capillary fringe Reaches the Root Zone of Plants

๐ŸŒŸElementary Profile of a Dam is a Right angled Triangle

Lacey's Concept of Design of Canals is Based on the Unlined Channels only

The Canal which is aligned along a Ridge Line is called as Watershed Canal

The Canal which is aligned at Right Angled to the Contour is called as Side-Slope Canal

Waste Water Engineering

๐Ÿ”ฐActivated sludge process (ASP)

๐Ÿ”ถActivated sludge:-
It is sludge containing large concentration of highly active aerobic micro organisms.

๐Ÿ”ธASP works on the principle of suspended culture system.

๐Ÿ”ธComponents of ASP

A) Primary settling tank :-

~ Detention time - 1.5 to 2 hr.

B) Aeration tank :-

~ Detention time- 4 to 8 hr

C) Secondary sedimentation tank :-

~ Detention time- 1.5 to 2 hr.

D) Sludge thickener & sludge digestion tank

๐Ÿ”ธActivated sludge process parameters

1.Hydraulic retention time (HRT):- It is the ratio of volume of tank to the rate of sewage flow into the tank.

2.Volumetric loading rate or BOD loading rate:- It is ratio of BOD applied to unit volume of aeration tank.

3. Food to microorganism ratio (F/M):- It is defined as the ratio of kg of BOD applied per day to kg of MLSS in aeration tank.

4.Mean cell residence time (Sludge age):- It is defined as mass of cell in the reactors to mass of cells wasted per day.

5.Sludge volume index:-
It is the volume occupied in ml by 1 gm MLSS after settling for 30 minute from 1L sewage sample is known as sludge volume index.

๐Ÿ”ธUsual values adpoted

๐Ÿ‘‰ F/M :- 0.4 to 0.3

๐Ÿ‘‰ MCRT :- 5 to 15 days

๐Ÿ‘‰ Efficiency :- 85 - 95%

๐Ÿ‘‰ Recycling ratio :- 0.25 - 0.5

๐Ÿ”ธ Operational problems associated with ASP

1. Rising of sludge :- Settled sludge contains large number of live cells. They oxidise the dead cells and release nitrogen. The nitrogen causes the sludge to risep and increases the Xe value.

~ Remedies :- Increase Qr & Decrease Q

2. Bulking of sludge :- Large number of dead cell in settled sludge and growth of filamentous organisms. Occurs when SVI โ‰ƒ 150

~ Remedies :- Bring down SVI (โ‰ƒ 150), Increase pH, Increase DO, decrease F/M ratio.

๐Ÿ’ฅHerring-bone Bond:-
Commonly used for Brick Paving.

โšก๏ธStretcher Bond:-
It is preferred when walls of Half brick thickness need to be constructed.

๐Ÿ’ฅRat-trap bond:-
Bond in which cavity is existing.

In this method,bricks are placed in vertical position instead of conventional horizontal position and thus creating a wall(hollow space) within the wall.

โšก๏ธKing Closer:-
Rectangular brick whose one end has been cut off diagonally to half the width of brick

โšก๏ธQueen Closer:-
When Brick is cut along it's length,making it two halves then it is called Queen Closer.

๐Ÿ’ฅSilica in Brick:- enables brick to retain it's shape.

๐Ÿ’ฅAlumina in Brick:- Responsible for plasticity characteristics of brick earth.

๐Ÿ’ฅExcess silica in Brick:-
makes brick brittle and weak.

๐Ÿ’ฅExcess Alumina in Brick:-
Produce crack during drying and burning

๐Ÿ’ฅExcess of Magnesia n Brick:-
Affects colour and makes brick yellow.

๐Ÿ’ฅExcess of lime in Brick:-
Causes brick to melt and loss it's shape.

๐Ÿ’ฅExcess Iron oxide in Brick:-
Makes brick to dark blue.
