Longer-term corrosion is a function of the activity of sulphate-reducing bacteria and is influenced by the concentration of nutrients in the bulk water. These influences are examined in more detail for the corrosion of steels in the brackish waters of the River Thames and for several immersion ...
1. Nutrients pollution :Industries throw their wastes like fertilizers, waste water and sewage into river bodies. These make weed and algae grow rapidly in the water, making it unsuitable for drinking while depleting the level of oxygen in the water. This harms the organisms living in water. 2...

Pollution control is a continuing problem for the government. Another great source of water pollution is poisonous chemicals. Hong Kong once prided herself on being the “Fragrant Harbor”. Residents depend on the government to take measures to solve questions.The water pollution in Hong Kong ...
Since our oceans are a vast body of water, they can easily churn up and disperse large amounts of biodegradable pollutants. The areas most in danger of pollution are coastal waters near heavily populated areas, such as wetlands, coral reefs, swamps, and estuaries. Here, developing countries ...
Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies by directly or indirectly discharging chemicals, pollutants and wastes without adequate treatment.
Water pollution is the release of substances (such as chemicals or microorganisms) or energy (in the form of radioactivity or heat) into surface and subsurface waters to the point that the substances interfere with beneficial use of the water or with the
Practically, a reasonable numerical simulation of these complicated terrestrial processes in a watershed would be a useful tool to investigate the water quality status, to predict potential impacts of climate and land cover changes, and to find optimal solutions to pollution problems (Borah and Bera,...
Hand pumps abstracting water from shallow and deep unconfined aquifers have been found to deliverpolluted water in terms of color, organics and coliform bacteria. As the hand pumps are the only source of water supply inVillage Chandena Maal, pollution of the groundwater has adversely affected the...
They too can become polluted, for example, when weed killers used in people's gardens drain into the ground. Groundwater pollution is much less obvious than surface-water pollution, but is no less of a problem. In 1996, a study in Iowa in the United States found that over half the ...
