Transcript of L 17 do sag [compatibility mode]
Causes of Water Pollution
� Factors that contribute to water pollution can be categorized into two different groups� Point sources� Non-point sources
� Point sources are the easiest to identify and control
� Non point sources are ambiguously defined and harder to control
Point Sources
� Some point sources of water pollution include� Waste products from factories� Waste from sewage system� Waste from power plants� Waste from power plants� Waste from underground coalmines� Waste from oil wells
� They are called point sources because they are direct sources of water pollution and can be reduced and monitored
Non-point Sources
� The term non-point source comprises of large range of sources such as:� when rain or snow moves through the ground and
picks up pollutants as it moves towards a major body of waterbody of water
� the runoff of fertilizers from farm animals and crop land
� air pollutants getting washed or deposited to earth � storm water drainage from lawns, parking lots, and
streets
Organic Pollution and Oxygen Demand
Bacteria

180 g 192 g
1g glucose = 192/180g O2
1g glucose consumes 1.07g O21g glucose consumes 1.07g O2
1g glucose has BOD of 1.07g
Organic matter in waste + O2 in stream ���� CO2 + H2O
DO level ≤ 2.0 mg/L, some fish and other aquatic animal Species may be distressed and some species may even die due to suffocation.As a rule of thumb DO level of 4 mg/L should be maintained
Disposal by dilution
� Disposal by dilution is a process in which the treated wastewater from ETPs is discharged in a large static body of water or in moving water bodies such as rivers or streams.
� The discharged wastewater is purified in due � The discharged wastewater is purified in due course of time, by the self purification process of natural waters.
� The effluent discharge and degree of treatment of wastewater depends upon the self purification capacity of the river and its intended water use
12
Conditions favouring dilution without
treatment1. Where wastewater is quite fresh.2. SS have been removed from wastewater3. Volume of receiving water body is more than
the wastewater dischargeDilution water having high DO, to satisfy the 4. Dilution water having high DO, to satisfy the BOD of wastewater
5. Where swift forward currents are available6. Wastewater does not contain toxic substances7. Water is not used for drinking immediately
after point of discharge.13
Standards of dilutionDilution factor Standards of purification required
Above 500 No treatment required. Raw sewage can be directly discharged into river
Between 300 to 500 Primary treatment such as PST is required so that SS concentration is less than 150 mg/litthan 150 mg/lit
Between 150 to 300 Treatment such as screening, sedimentation and chemical precipitation are required so that SS concentration is less than 50 mg/lit
Less than 150 Thorough treatment is required SS should be less than 50 mg/lit and BOD 5 should be less than 20 mg/lit

2. Dispersion due to currents
� Self purification largely depends upon currents, which readily disperses wastewater in the stream, preventing locally high concentration of pollutants.
� High velocity improves aeration which � High velocity improves aeration which reduces the concentration of pollutants.
� High velocity improves raeration which reduces the time of recovery, though length of stream affected by the wastewater is increased.
17
3. Sedimentation
� If stream velocity is lesser than the scour velocity of particles then sedimentation will takes place, which has two effects
1. SS contribute largely to BOD will be removed by settling and hence removed by settling and hence downstream water quality will be improved.
2. Due to settled solids anaerobic decomposition may take place
18
4. Oxidation
� The organic matter present in the wastewater is oxidized by aerobic bacteria utilizing dissolved oxygen of the natural waters.
� This process continues till complete oxidation of organic matter takes place.organic matter takes place.
� The stream which is capable of absorbing more oxygen through reaeration etc can purify heavily polluted water in short time
19
5. reduction
� Reduction occurs in the stream due to hydrolysis of organic matter biologically or chemically.
� Anaerobic bacteria will split the organic matter into liquids and gases, thus paving matter into liquids and gases, thus paving the way for stabilization by oxidation
20
6. temperature
� At low temp activity of bacteria is low., and hence decomposition is slow., though DO will be more because increased solubility of oxygen in water.
� At higher temperature purification will � At higher temperature purification will take lesser time though amount of DO is less in the water.
21
7. Sunlight
� Sunlight helps certain micro-organisms to absorb CO2 and give out oxygen, thus resulting in self purification.
� Sunlight acts as disinfectant and stimulates growth of algae which produces stimulates growth of algae which produces oxygen during photosynthesis.
� Hence wherever there is algal growth water contains more DO during daytime.
