Feed: Wastewater Treatment - A New Technology Promises Greater Competency at Lower Cost - AggScore: 44.3

Recycling and reuse of wastewater will do away with the need of using fresh water. The extent to which the processes involved in wastewater treatment are cost effective and easy to follow will act as an impetus. Hence discussing about the processes involved in wastewater treatment and their relative merits and demerits becomes pertinent. Like Sedimentation [...]

Water as a chemical: Pure water is a compound of hydrogen and oxygen. It is colorless, odorless and tasteless. It exists as liquid at ambient temperature. Water – what it contains: Water has both living and non-living organisms and substances in it. The living organisms can be further subdivided into macro- and micro- organisms. Macro organisms, which are [...]

It’s not a widely published fact, but that’s no reason why it should not be a widely acknowledged problem. The world’s supply of fresh water is slowly running dry. Forty percent of the world’s population is already reeling under the problem of scarcity. Most of the diseases plaguing the world are water-borne. And while there is [...]

In a previous article, I listed some important factors you must take into account before you treat wastewater. These include the presence, in the wastewater, of acidity, alkalinity, hardness, and chloride, as well as the BOD and COD of wastewater. In this article, I have added substantially to the list. Before wastewater treatment begins, the [...]

Wastewater treatment has taken on a different scope now, against the background of the peril of fresh water sources running dry. Wastewater is constituted of water used differently, sewage and storm-water, enveloping the community. More groups of citizens produce sewage from both domestic and nondomestic causes. Except when rightly treated, sewage water can cause illness or [...]

Wastewater treatment has assumed a new magnitude itself now, against the background of the risk of fresh water sources running dry. Wastewater comprises storm-water, water used for varied purposes, and sewage, enveloping the community. Most communities produce sewage from both domestic and nondomestic sources. Unless properly treated, sewage can injure the society and pollute nature. Here I [...]

Recycling and reusing wastewater will remove the need of consuming virgin water. The degree to which the procedures comprising wastewater treatment are costwise viable and provide easy following will give a kick start to employing water treatment. Therefore discussing the procedures comprising treatment of wastewater and their pros and cons, becomes relevant. Like tanks using sedimentation, [...]

Polluted water can cause four types of diseases : water borne, water washed, water based and water related. Diseases brought forth by water could get transmitted fecally or orally. Some are caused by bacteria; these comprise typhoid and cholera. Some others originate from the phage virus or bacteriophages. Infectious hepatitis and jaundice belong to these. Still [...]
