Explore Project Topics on: Industrial effluent of water quality into the environment

ABSTRACT Pollution of water bodies due to human activities such as industrial waste disposal is a serious challenge facing most developing countries in the world today. Thus the management and supply of freshwater to the public is compromised and the ecological integrity of these rivers is lost due to adverse impacts such as eutrophicaton with... Continue Reading

(A CASE STUDY OF ABA RIVER IN ABA NORTH L.G.A.OF ABIA STATE) ABSTRACT This project work was aimed at determining the effect of effluent on Aba River.

ABSTRACT  Abattoir activities are accompanied by some negative influence on the environment if not properly managed. The impact of abattoir effluent on the quality of Asata and Owo (a tributary to Asata) streams in Enugu was studied. Field observation revealed that the inhabitants of the study area make use of the stream water. Two sets of... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT  Industrial waste water treatment covers the mechanisms and process used to treat water that have been contaminated in some way by anthropogenic industrial or commercial activities prior to its release into the environment or its re-use. Water is a natural and inorganic solvent with the composition of hydrogen and oxygen only (H20).... Continue Reading

. BACKGROUND OF STUDY Water is the prerequisite of life, mankind has settled along the Nile, the Euphrates, the Tigris, the Indus and the Yangtze-Kiang (Marsha  et al ., 1999). Since ancient times and well before the past millennium, people have sought ways of dealing with... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT A study was carried out on crisis management which originated with the large scale industrial and environment disaster in the 1980’s. Crisis management is the process by which an organization deals with a major event that threatens to harm to the organization, its stakeholders, or the general... Continue Reading
