Texas Wastewater Class A Exam Questionsand Answers 100% Correct
What is TCEQ doing to control "point source" pollution of the Texas waterways?
-Permitting of domestic wastewater plants
-Permitting of industrial wastewater plants
Describe proper design of force main wastewater lines. - Minimum two fps velocity
with the smallest pump operating alone. Minimum four inch diameter pipe with 150
psi rating.
What is Standard Dimension Ratio? - Ratio of outside pipe diameter (OD) to wall
thickness (PVC)
Describe proper design of gravity wastewater lines. - Designed to flow half full
,under normal conditions, at a minimum of two fps and a maximum of ten fps.
Manholes should have a minimum opening of? - 24 inches and be at least 4 feet wide.
pH meters should be calibrated how often? What standards should be used for
calibration purposes? - Daily with at least two buffers.
What is the standard chlorine residual and minimum contact time on Texas
wastewater permits? - a. 1.0 mg/L for a minimum 20 minutes detention time at peak
flow b. No chlorine residual needed if detention time is greater than 21 days
As the complexity of an organization increases, what management function becomes
most important? - Planning
What is the effective chlorine disinfecting agent? - Hypochlorous Acid (HOCl)
Does pH affect the chlorination process? Explain your answer. - When using free
chlorine the disinfectant is HOCl acid. As such it is much more effective at pH's below
7.0. Above 7.0 pH the acid begins to be neutralized.
What is the effluent chlorine residual in Texas that is standard on permits and the
minimum detention time? What is the maximum residual allowed? - Texas standard
is 1.0 mg/L for a minimum 20 minutes detention time at peak flow. Maximum
residual allowed is 4.0 mg/L.

weir is 2 feet inside the outer clarifier wall. The flow is 1.0 MGD. The weir and
outflow channel is 3 feet deep. a. What is the detention time in hours? - Formula
, What activated process cannot nitrify in a single stage? - Contact Stabilization
What is the GPM output of a piston pump with an 8-inch diameter piston with a 10-
inch stroke operating at 50 strokes per minute? - Formula
A treatment plant has a clarifier that is 60 feet in diameter and is 10 feet deep. The

deep and has 24 inches of freeboard. What is the detention time in hours? - Formulas
Anaerobic digester gas should contain? - 65-75% methane, 25-35% carbon dioxide
and 1-5% nitrogen.
An activated sludge plant has an average daily flow of 3.5 MG. The aeration tank

c. septic wastes
d. nutrient deficiencies .
e. high sulfur content
Good sludge quality will have a predominance of what organisms in the MLSS? -
Ciliated protozoa
When an RBC is operating correctly, how will the slime appear on the media? - Grey
