Q:

Which of the following can clog process for degradation of bioorganic compounds?

A) Bad bacteria B) Algae
C) Archean D) Bio augmentation microbes
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Bad bacteria

Explanation: Bad bacteria can clog process for degradation of bioorganic compounds and thereby making it difficult for biological degradation, whereas, algae, Archean, Bio augmentation microbes are considered as good bacteria and they do not clog process for degradation of bioorganic compounds.

Q:

Which the following doesn’t come under the category of very easily degradable polymer compounds used in immobilization?

A) Sugar B) Amino acids
C) Organic acids D) PCB
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) PCB

Explanation: PCB is a very slowly degrading persistent pollutant, and hence, it can persist in the environment for a really long time without being degraded. Sugar, Amino acids, Organic acids with very short and simple polymers can be very easily degraded.
