Download or read book Water Pollution Effects Control and Treatment written by Margaret Barton and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-22 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contamination of water bodies due to human activities is referred to as water pollution. It is majorly caused due to the discharge of wastewater into natural water bodies. The anthropogenic contaminants along with natural phenomena such as volcanoes, earthquakes, storms and algae blooms can cause changes in the quality and the ecological status of the water. Other contaminants include acidity, petroleum, detergents, food processing waste, ammonia, fertilizers and garbage. Chemicals and pathogens are also some pollutants that contribute to water pollution. Various physical, chemical and biological tests are used to analyze the water samples to measure the water pollution. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of water pollution. Most of the topics introduced herein cover new techniques used for the control and treatment of water pollution. The book is appropriate for those seeking detailed information in this area.
Download or read book Pollution written by R M Harrison and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2007-10-31 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pollution: Causes, Effects and Control is the fourth edition of a best-selling introductory level book dealing with chemical and radioactive pollution in its broadest sense. The scope of the book ranges from the sources of pollutants and their environmental behaviour, to their effects on human and non-human receptors, to the technologies and strategies available for control. The fourth edition has been wholly revised and updated from the previous edition due to the rapid pace of developments in this field. Topics covered include chemical pollution of freshwater and marine environments, drinking water quality, water pollution biology, sewage and its treatment, toxic wastes, air pollution and atmospheric chemistry, control of pollutant emissions, land contamination, solid waste management, clean technologies, persistent organic pollutants in the environment, environmental radioactivity, health effects of environmental chemicals, legal control of pollution and integrated pollution control. There is a completely new chapter on Clean Technologies and Industrial Ecology, reflecting the growing importance of pollution prevention as opposed to end-of-pipe solutions. Whilst originally intended as an introductory reference work for professionals within the field, the book has been widely adopted for teaching purposes at the undergraduate and postgraduate level.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water pollution is the contamination of water as a result of human activities. It is primarily caused by the discharge of inadequately treated wastewater into natural water streams leading to environmental degradation and impacts on public health. Other effects include eutrophication, acidity, anoxia, etc. Common contaminants contributing to water pollution include chemicals and pathogens. Water pollution can be classified as surface water, groundwater and marine pollution. The measurement of water pollution is done by analyzing water samples with a variety of physical, chemical and biological tests. Prevention of pollution can be achieved by the adoption of appropriate sewage and industrial treatments, control of urban runoff, agricultural wastewater management, erosion and sediment control, etc. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of water pollution. It discusses some existing theories and innovative concepts revolving around water pollution, its treatment and mitigation strategies. This book is a vital tool for all researching and studying this field.
