The sewage treatment plant which part require large area :-

  • A.Biological filter
  • B.Septic tank
  • C.Oxidation pond
  • D.Trickling filter

Answer: C

The unit that needs a large area is the Oxidation pond.

An oxidation (stabilisation) pond treats sewage in a shallow open basin, typically 1 to 1.5 m deep, where algae supply oxygen through photosynthesis and bacteria break down the organic matter. Because it depends on sunlight and a long detention time, it needs a large land area, which is why it suits small towns where land is cheap.

Biological (trickling) filters and septic tanks are compact units that treat sewage in a much smaller footprint.
