It is responsible for water-borne diseases such as typhoid and cholera. These diseases can spread through contaminated water, posing serious health risks to individuals. 4. Impact on Aquatic Life: Water pollution significantly affects aquatic ecosystems. The introduction of pollutants can reduce the ...
Ground water is being polluted by percolation of contaminated surface water through the layers of the earth. Release of raw sewage in unlined soak-pits and release of toxic effluents by the industries into surface water bodies, are the main causes of ground water pollution Indiscriminate...
In 1996, a study in Iowa in the United States found that over half the state's groundwater wells were contaminated with weed killers. You might think things would have improved since then, but, two decades on, all that's really changed is the name of the chemicals we're using. Today,...
"But at present the conclusion of the World Health Organization and other concerned bodies is that the risk from contaminated water supplies outweighs the risk to health from chlorine. Levels of chlorine and its by-products have been falling in water and the amount coming out of the average ta...
Therefore, the stability of the structures will be compromised and soil and groundwater will be polluted, due to damage to tanks and leakage of large amounts of contaminants [2, 38,39,40,41]. Most of the previous studies have focused on clayey and sandy soils contaminated with crude oil ...

(Dinobryon divergens—chrysophytes) was observed. It seems that algae populations can quite easily adjust to long-lasting contamination. However, there are other factors that may explain the existence of microorganisms inhabiting contaminated water. One is the presence of high concentrations of Ca and...
Contaminated water with hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) is a serious environmental problem. This study aimed to evaluate the Cr(VI) removal by zero valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) reduction process and the impact of Cr(VI), nZVI and combined treatment with nZVI and Cr(VI) on tomato growth perform...
