Ground water in general is clean and fresh. However, industrialization urbanization together with intensified agricultural activity have led to increasing demands on one hand but the potential for large scale release of contaminants other. Water pollution disturbs normal uses agriculture, public supply, aquatic life, wild life industry. An understanding various types pollutants considerable imp...

A microcosm study was conducted in Okeechobee, County, Florida, to evaluate the P removal potential of several aquatic macrophytes and "unconventional" terrestrial crops cultured on dairy lagoon wastewaters. Existing conventional spray field crops in this region that are irrigated with dairy wastewaters are estimated to remove 23 mgP/m-'-day. Effects of season and hydraulic retention time (HRT)...

A short term solution for the treatment of dairy waste water is discussed. Discharge rate'is 500 m3lday with a high organic load (2,750 Kg CODlday). Low capital investment (US $ 330,000) and operational (US$ 0.55lm3) costs were required which ought to be competitive with current market prices but within the official environmental norms imposed by the national agency SEDESOL. The problem was sol...

Aim The invasion of exotic macrophytes causes native biodiversity loss in aquatic ecosystems China. However, the influence invasive free-floating on epiphytic algal communities has rarely been reported, especially comparison with those macrophytes. Region Southern Methods We investigated interrelationship between roots three [two species (Eichhornia crassipes and Pistia stratiotes) one (Hydroch...
