Abstract The purification of the primary treated domestic sewage was performed in present study through horizontal sub-surface flow constructed wetland (CW) 10 × 3.5 m dimension. using three setups CW 1 (Unplanted CW), 2 (CW planted with macrophyte Typha latifolia ), and 3 two species T. Commelina benghalensis ). experiments were by converting one type into other form sequentially, i.e., built first after experiments, it converted then 3. filled a layer coarse fine gravel 70 cm depth as...
Abstract Under the present investigation, vertical subsurface flow constructed wetlands (VSSFCWs) planted with macrophytes treated domestic sewage in an environmentally sustainable manner. Treatment of is alternative method that decreases energy consumption and economic costs involved treatment environmental contaminants. This study evaluates potential efficiency VSSFCWs using two different macrophytes, Acorus calamus Canna indica for sewage. To perform this study, chambers dimensions 2.48 m...
Owing to the rapid industrial and socioeconomic development, heavy metal concentration in river is gradually increasing, it has potential threaten aquatic environment mankind. The present investigation deals with quantification fractionation of metals from sediments Narmada River. presence these can be toxic human health life, therefore different pollution indices were evaluated identify degree threat that might imposed by contaminants surface water sediment. In this context, risk assessment...
Abstract The present study was conducted to treat primary and secondary treated sewage for its reuse in irrigation, soil enrichment aquaculture activities. involves treatment of this through a subsurface horizontal gravity-fed gravel filter bed with an area 35 m2. effluent then subjected filtration by zeolite medium disinfection inline electrolytic production chlorine. In order provide pathogen-free water, anodic oxidation (AO) system implemented, treating flow up 10 m3/d. gravity-driven...
This study was performed to assess water quality in the Narmada River, third-longest river India. Water samples were collected from 6 major sampling stations with 17 points. Nine parameters analyzed calculate index (WQI), followed by multivariate statistical evaluation. The results indicated that upper varied excellent very poor – comprising for approximately 12%, good 17%, 59%, and 12% of pre-monsoon samples, but 71% post-monsoon. While general poor, anthropogenic inputs such as domestic...
Methane (CH 4 ) is one of the most important greenhouse gases and oxidized by methanotrophic bacteria in soil.Present work an effort to review available information this regard present them a systematic way.In review, we concluded that low NH + concentration can be supportive methane oxidation growth methanotrophs.However, their high contents suppress inhibiting enzymes particularly monooxygenase (MMO) involved oxidation.There are range soil environmental factors such as type vegetation,...
Abstract Surface water chemistry of the upper Narmada River was investigated at 13 different locations for four consecutive years (2017–2020) during pre- and post-monsoon seasons. The main objective study to identify processes governing evaluate its suitability irrigation. physical parameters estimated were; pH (7.9 ± 0.4 8 seasons), EC (322.8±93.3 μS/cm 312.1±80.2 post-monsoon) TDS (203.4±41.5 mg/L pre-and 213.4±48 post-monsoon). obtained concentration cations anions were in order Ca++...
Abstract This study details the hydrochemical characterization and human health risk assessment of groundwater in Narmada River Basin. The was performed based on data collected from 305 sample stations Hydrochemical evaluation illustrated that cationic ions upper middle Basin were dominated by Ca2+; however, lower basin it Na+ ions. Similarly, anionic HCO3− throughout basin. A Chadha plot drawn inferred most belonged to recharge water category (Ca-Mg-HCO3 type). Base-exchange indices...
The removal of contaminants from sewage wastewater through constructed wetlands is becoming increasingly popular worldwide. Constructed wetland (CW) a man-made structure for treatment that uses natural processes associated with vegetation, soils, and their microbial combinations. This study investigated the performance experimental vertical flow (VFCW) cells to remove heavy metals (HMs) primary treated sewage. was collected plant (STP) in campus Indira Gandhi National Tribal University,...
The present study focuses on an impact assessment of the cement industry various social, environmental and public health issues. During study, socio-environmental issues, such as sex ratio, literacy rate, availability basic amenities, disease spectrum, land use pattern, crop production, drinking water quality effect emissions vegetation were thoroughly addressed. Finally, also suggests a viable solution for sustainable development in particular area. results show that socio-economic status...
