. How are flocs produced in the secondary treatment plant of Sewage ? Explain their role.

Answer:  When primary effluent is pumped into enormous aeration tanks and mechanically agitated, it produces a robust growth of helpful aerobic bacteria known as flocs. These microorganisms absorb the majority of the organic stuff in the effluent while developing, resulting in a considerable reduction in the effluent’s BOD.

Flocs are a mesh-like structure formed by masses of vital bacteria and fungal filaments. They’re trapped in a sludge-like structure. They aid in increased aerobic decomposition and filament aids in particle trapping when placed in the secondary sewage tank.
