- State the purpose and importance of each process step in wastewater treatment.arrow_forwardWhich statement correctly describes the differences between sterilization and sanitation? Sterlization removes pathogenic microbes, while sanitation removes all microbes. Sterilization removes all microbes from a surface, while sanitation removes most microbes. Sterilization is used for instruments and tools, while sanitation is used for consumable products. Sterilization reduces the total microbe count, while sanitation reduces the only harmful microbe count.arrow_forwardThe activated sludge process was developed from empirical knowledge and is now widely used for wastewater treatment. From a microbial point of view, i. Discuss how the ecology of different sectors of the process can be defined. ii. Design an experiment to understand how an efficient process differs from one with problems, such as sludge bulking.arrow_forward
