The Important Primary air Pollutants are:
1. Oxides of sulphur, particularly the sulphur dioxide (SO2);
2. Oxides of carbon like carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO 2), particularly the carbon
monoxide (CO);
3. Oxides of nitrogen, like NO, NO2, NO3 (expressed as NOx);
4. Volatile organic compounds, mostly hydrocarbons; and
5. Suspended particulate matter (SPM).
The important secondary pollutants are:
(i) Sulphuric acid (H2SO4):
(ii) Ozone (O3)
(iii) Formaldehydes; and
(iv) Peroxy-acyl-nitrate (PAN); etc

` Oxides of Sulphur: Sulphur dioxide (SO2) is the basic air pollutant amongst all the oxides of
sulphur. SO2 is an irritant gas, and when inhaled, affects our mucous membranes. It increases the
breathing rate and causes oxygen deficits in the body, leading to bronchial-spasms in some of te
affected persons. Patients of asthma are very badly affected by this pollutant.
Carbon Monoxide (CO): Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, and toxic gas, produced when
organic materials like natural gas, coal or wood are incompletely burnt. Vehicular exhausts are the
single largest source of carbon monoxide, as the number of vehicles have increase and is increasing
by leaps and bound over the world. Poorly maintained vehicles and those having inefficient engines,
without being fitted with adequate pollution control devices, release greater amounts of carbon
monoxide. Carbon monoxide possesses about 200 times affinity for blood haemoglobin (H b) than
oxygen, Eventually, when inhaled, CO replaces O 2 from the haemoglobin, and forms what is known
as carboxy-haemoglobin (COHb). This carboxy-haeomoglobin is of no use for respiratory purposes;
and hence, CO inhalation impairs normal oxygen transport carried out by the blood. Low levels of
CO inhalations produce symptoms like headache, dizzincess, reduction in reaction time, etc. Higher
levels of CO inhalations may cause nausea, heart palpitations, difficulty in breathing, etc. In extreme
cases, when about half of the haemoglobin of the blood is used up in forming carboxy hemoglobin,
death becomes a certainly.
Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx): Atmospheric nitrogen may combine with oxygen at high temperatures,
as generated during fuel combustion, to form nitric oxide (NO). The nitric oxide (NO) at low levels
is relatively harmless, but at high concentrations may cause asphyxiation and respiratory discomfort,
because it combines about 3 lakh times faster with hemoglobin than oxygen. Larger concentrations
may cause quick deaths.
Hydrocarbons (HC): Hydrocarbons are the group of compounds consisting of carbon and hydrogen
atoms. They are either evaporated into the atmosphere from the petroleum fuel supplies (such as
petrol, diesel, etc.) or are emitted out in the automobile exhausts as the remnants of petroleum fuel
that did not burn completely. The hydrocarbons may, therefore, also be contained in the smokes of
incinerators using petroleum fuel for burning. They may also be contained in the fumes of oil
refineries.
Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM): The particulate matter in air may occur in air largely in
solid form as particles of dust, smoke, fume, etc; and also in liquid form as mist and fog. The
particles larger then a molecule but small enough to remain suspended in air are called aerosols.

Sol: The various natural properties, which continuously clean the environment, automatically, are:
Dispersion: Dispersion of pollutants by winds reduces the concentration of air pollutants at one
place, although in the strict sense, it does not remove them from the environment as a whole. this
mechanism is therefore, a diluting mechanism only.
Only a means of spreading our own pollutants around our neighbors. The dispersion through long
chimneys, therefore, helps us in diluting the air pollutants near their sources only, and does not
reduce their long term undesirable effects on the community as a whole for example, it has been
estimated that SO2 emitted in other countries.
Gravitational Settling: Gravitational settling is the most important natural mechanism, under which
large heavy particles from the ambient air settle down on buildings, trees and other objects. This
generally happens for the particles which are larger than 20 in size.
Absorption: In the natural absorption process the gaseous as well as particulate pollutants from the
air get collected in the rain or mist, and may settle out with that moisture. this phenomenon takes
place below the cloud level, when falling raindrops absorb pollutants, and is also known as washout
or scavenging. The process, however, does not help in removing particles smaller than 1 m in size.
Rainout: Rainout is the process involving precipitation above the cloud level, where submicron
particle present in the atmosphere in the clouds, serve as condensation nuclei, around which drop of
water amy form, and fall out as raindrops. This phenomenon helps in increase rainfall and for
formation in urban areas, containing huge quantities of such particles, rising high above the cloud
level.
Adsorption: Adsorption is the phenomenon in which the gaseous, liquid, or solid pollutants present
in the ambient air are kept attracted, generally electro statically, by a surface, where they are
concentrated and retained. Natural surface, such as soils, rocks, leaves, blades of grass, buildings,
and other objected can adsorb and retain pollutants. the particles may come in contact with such
surfaces either by gravitational settling (as stated earlier) or by inertial impaction, under which are
pollutants are carried to such surfaces by winds. Impaction is particularly effective for particles of
size 10 to 15 m.

Sol: The following scientifically managed methods can be used for disposal of municipal sold waste
(refuse):
Disposal of MSW (Refuse) by Sanitary Land Filling or Controlled Tipping Method: In this
method of refuse disposal, refuse is carried and dumped into the low lying area (car-marked as the
land fill site) under an engineered operation, de-signed and operated in an environmentally sound
manner, as not to cause any public nuisance or hazards to public health or safety.
Disposal of MSW (refuse) by Shredding and Pulverisation: The size and volume reduction of
municipal solid waste (MSW) is accomplished by the physical processes of shredding and
pulverisation. Shredding refers to the actions of cutting and tearing; whereas, pulverisation refers to
the actions of crushing and grinding. Shredding and pulverising may help in reducing the overall
volume of the original MSW, by as much as 40%. The shredding and pulverising not only helps in
reducing the volume of MSW, but also helps in changing the physical character of the waste, which
becomes practically odourless and unattractive to the insects.

Disposal of MSW (Refuse) by Composting: Composting of refuse is a biological method of


decomposing solid wastes. this decomposition can be affected either under aerobic conditions, or
under anaerobic conditions, or both. The final end product, ins a manure, called the compost or
humus, which is in great demand in European countries as fertilizer for farms.
Disposal of MSW (refuse) by Incineration and Thermal Pyrolysis: Burning of refuse at high
temperatures in furnaces, called incinerators, is quite a sanitary method of refuse disposal, and is
widely adopted in developed countries like USA, where the collected refuse is of high calorific
value, and is, hence quite suitable to burning.
Pyrolysis: Upon heating in closed contrainers in oxygen free atmosphere, most of the organic
substances or solid waste can be split through a combination of thermal cracking and condensation
reactions into gaseous, liquid and solid fractions. This process is known as pyralysis or thermal
pyrolysis.

07(b). (ii)
Ans: Noise Pollution:
Definition and introduction:
Sound in the environment is caused by vibrations in the air (or some other medium) that reach human
ears and stimulate a sensation of hearing. When the sound becomes loud, or disagreeable, or unwanted,
it becomes noise.
The effects of Noise:
The various effects of noise can be divided into the following categories:
1. Noise induced annoyance
2. Noise induced diseases
3. Sleeplessness
4. Communication interference
5. Noise induced hearing loss
6. Effect of noise of wild life.

These effect are discusses below:


1. Noise Induced Annoyance:
One of the most important effect of noise on humans is annoyance and irritation due to disturbance.
A noise can be said to be annoying when a person does not like the same, and hence wants the sound
to be put off, or wish to leave the noisy area at the earliest.
2. Noise Induced Disease:
Noise may produce several undesirable physiological and psychological diseases in human beings.
These effects may vary depending upon the physical and mental condition of an individual. The

ACE Engineering Academy Hyderabad|Delhi|Bhopal|Pune|Bhubaneswar| Lucknow|Patna|Bengaluru|Chennai|Vijayawada|Vizag|Tirupati|Kukatpally |Kolkata


: 33 : Civil–Conventional Test–5 (Solutions)

diseases caused may include: anxiety, tenseness, nervousness, headaches, fatigue, nausea, insomnia,
high blood pressure, high pulse rate, greater perspiration, gastric secretions, etc.

3. Sleeplessness:
The nose may induce sleep disturbances including shorter sleep durations, more frequent awakening,
etc. sleep disturbances due to noise may depend upon the characteristics of the noise, such as its
frequency, loudness (intensity), and continuity/intermittency.
4. Communication Interference:
Noise can badly disturb communication when a person is speaking on telephone; or when individuals
are talking face to face. This may require grater speaking effort on the part of the speaker, and much
more attentive care on the part of the listener, than what would have been needed, otherwise.

5. Noise Induced Hearing Loss:


Exposure of human ears to intense noise for a long enough duration may cause damage to the
inner ear, thereby decreasing ones ability to hear. On lower scale, the damage may cause the
individuals to complain of tinnitus in the ears, while longer exposure may lead to deafness/
permanent loss of hearing. It may be caused due to complete destruction of the organ of corti that
transmits sound from ear to brain. WHP data suggests that around 5% of the school children
suffer from varying degree of deafness. According to US Public Health Service, more than 7
million people in USA are working where noise levels are high enough to damage hearing. No
such data is, however, available for India, although noise is a major health hazard in industry, at
airports, at railway stations, and at highways.
6. Effect of Noise on Wild Life:
Wildlife, like humans, is also badly affected by noise. Health of several zoo-animals such as
deers, rhinos and lions are adversely affected by noise. They become inactive and dull under
noisy conditions. Several migratory birds have stopped resting in habitats close to noisy cities.
Musk-oxen, kargaroos, rats, grizzly bears have been noticed to have left their noisy habitats to
move to calmer places. Such as change of habitat of wild life may sometimes alter their food
habits, health, and mating behaviour, bringing about environmental imbalances.
Remedies for Noise pollution:
Exposure of mankind to the day by day increasing noise nuisance must be reduced and abated, if
its adverse effects on human health are to be controlled. The society must therefore be protected
from the harmful effects of noise by devising and implementing ways and means for the
abatement of noises.
There are certain noises which can be kept under control by legal laws and ordinances, and there
are others which have to be dampened and attenuated by the use of good technology and town
planning. For example, the noises produced by motor vehicles can be controlled to some extent
ACE Engineering Academy Hyderabad|Delhi|Bhopal|Pune|Bhubaneswar| Lucknow|Patna|Bengaluru|Chennai|Vijayawada|Vizag|Tirupati|Kukatpally |Kolkata
: 34 : ESE – Offline Test-2018

by proper maintenance of vehicles, which can be ensured only by prescribing maximum


permissible noise levels for different types of automobiles, through Motor Vehicles Act.
Similarly, industrial noises, can be brought under the control of Factories Act by specifying
maximum permissible noise levels and other checks. Similarly, public blaring of loudspeakers
and plying of radio sets at loud levels can be prevented by general legal laws of public nuisance
or laws specifically made for noise pollution. Yet however, there exist several other noises which
have become part and parcel of our modern life. All such noises are to be reduced by better
design technology to be used in the modern day gadgets like fans, air-conditioners, washing
machines, refrigerators, mixers and grinders, etc.
Another very important method for abating noise effects on mankind is to used proper town
planning techniques, and thus, to ensure construction of houses and offices away from the major
sources of noise. Proper segregation, zoning and separation of residential complexes from the
commercial and industrial ones, by means of physical barriers, roads, railway lines, parks or
green belts, do constitute an important aspect of such good town-planning.
The noises produced by automobiles and trains, being the biggest noise nuisance in a modern
city life, can be abated by construction of walls on both sides of roads and railway lines. Raising
of such obstructions and barriers in between the noise sources (auto-mobiles) and residences,
may considerably reduce the noise levels reaching the residences. Attenuation of upto 15
decibels is possible in this manner. The extent of attenuation achieved by raising of such a

D = Distance between barrier and the receiving point


Raising of thick and high vegetation and tree growing along sides of roads and railway lines,
offer cheaper barriers to cause such noise reductions.

Locating the noisy sources on the downwind side of the residences, may be another important
consideration in good town planning, because noise will then travel farther in the downwind
direction away from the residences.

Noise levels in residential buildings can be reduced to some extent by offsetting the building
from the main or street roads by a suitable distance. The farther is this distance, the better will be
the attenuation, because the intensity of noise gets reduced with increase in distance.

Sol: Losses from Canals: During the passage of water from the main canal to the outlet at the head of
the water course water may be lost due to evaporation as well as seepage
(i) Evaporation: These losses are generally 3 to 4% of total losses they depend on the following
factors
(a) Temperature (b) Wind velocity (c) Humidity (d) Season
(ii) Seepage Losses: are generally around 6 to 10% of total losses
Two conditions of seepage will exist
(a) Percolation (b) Absorption
In percolation, there exists a zone of continuous saturation from the canal to the water table and
direct flow is established.
In absorption, a small saturated soil 20 m exists round the canal section and is surrounded by
zone of decreasing saturation.
Seepage losses depend upon
(i) Type of seepage
i.e. whether percolation or absorption
(ii) Soil permeability
(iii) Condition of the canal
(iv) Amount of silt carried by the canal
(v) Velocity of canal water
(vi) Cross section and wetted perimeter
