Seasonal Variation in Physico Chemical Parameters of Krishna River Water of Satara District, Maharashtra, India

In the present investigation the focus was given on the river water quality for all the necessary parameters. As our selected sampling stations were from rural area of Satara District. The river water was studied for Temperature, pH, DO, BOD, COD, Chloride, Nitrates, Phosphates, Calcium, Magnesium and Hardness, etc. Due to increased population people on the bank of river are using the river water for their daily needs. But now days, it is observed that the river water is having some other objectionable parameters in a river body. It may be due to agricultural run off, domestic wastes and Human unhygienic habits like cattle washing, bathing and washing clothes. For some of the sampling stations river water is objectionable for drinking purposes. Hence, continuous monitoring of river water parameters is required.

April 06, 2019 0
Solvent Extraction of Neem Oil from Neem Seed for Development of Ecofriendly Pesticides
The objective of this paper is to study the efficacy of the extraction and isolation of natural toxic constituents present in some well known tree borne oil seeds for effective utilization in pesticide formulations. Neem seed kernels prior to their extraction for oil were pre treated in single stage with different solvents, viz., isopropanol, acetone and ethanol, in pure as well as in aqueous forms. The aqueous ethanol water ethanol 15 85 v v was also employed for three stage counter current pre treatment of neem seed kernels, which gave the best results. Further, development of safer pesticides from natural products has been necessitated due to the fact that synthetic organochlorine and organo phosphorus pesticides have created health hazards to mammals and have polluted the ecosystem.

The Effect of Ganesh Idol Immersion on the Water Quality of Gorai Jetty, Mumbai the Environmental Health Perspective
Water is one of the most important substances on earth. All plants and animals must have water to survive. If there was no water there would be no life on earth. Various factors play a part in this worrying state of affairs in India, such as dumped industrial and household waste and open defecation. But a surprisingly high level of pollution comes from religious ceremonies. The Ganesh festival is one of the biggest festivals in Mumbai. These idols are made up of non biodegradable materials like plaster of Paris PoP and synthetic paints used are also a major source of contamination and sedimentation. This can pose a serious threat to water quality and the flora and fauna the festival also generates a large amount of holy waste Nirmalya in the form of flowers, decoration materials, oil and other religious offerings. After the festival the Ganesha idols are immersed at the various beaches and lakes and creeks across the Mumbai city. To assess the water quality, the water samples were collected from Gorai creek before and after the Ganapati immersion and analysed for different physico chemical parameters. The parameters like pH, Temperature, DO, COD, Chloride, Sulphate, turbidity etc. were studied to find out the effect of idol immersion on quality of water. It has been observed that the values of some parameters were significantly increased during the immersion period and then declined in the post immersion period.

August 14, 2018 0
Biosorption of Copper (II) Ions by Eclipta Alba Leaf Powder from Aqueous Solutions
The removal of heavy metals from industrial wastewater is of great concern as heavy metals are non-biodegradable, toxic elements that cause serious health problems if disposed of in the surrounding environment. The present study, Karisalangkani (Eclipta Alba) leaves were used for the adsorption of heavy metals like copper (Cu (II)) ions. The bio sorbent was characterized using SEM and BET analysis. The bio sorption experiments are conducted through batch system. 

The operating parameters studied were initial metal ion concentration, adsorbent dosage, initial solution pH, contact time and effect of temperature Adsorption equilibrium is achieved in 30 min and the adsorption kinetics of Cu (II) is found to follow a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Equilibrium data for Cu (II) adsorption are fitted well by Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity for Cu (II) ions is estimated to be 9.2 mgg at 25 °C. The experimental result shows that the materials have good potential to remove heavy metals from effluent and good potential as an alternate low cost adsorbent. Due to their outstanding adsorption capacities, Eclipta Alba is excellent sorbents for the removal of copper (II) ions.

Arsenic Contamination of Ground water and Health Risk by Sanjay Kumar Verma | Dr. Ajay Kr. Upadhyay
The arsenic poisoning due to contaminated groundwater in West Bengal, India, and all of Bangladesh has been thought to be limited to the Ganges Delta despite early survey reports of arsenic contamination in groundwater in the Union Territory of Chandigarh and its surroundings in the northwestern Upper Ganga Plain and recent findings in the Terai area of Nepal. Groundwater arsenic contamination and sufferings of people have been reported in 20 countries in different parts of the world. The magnitude is considered highest in five Asian countries and the severity is in order of Bangladesh>India>Mangolia>China>Taiwan. 

In all these countries, more and more groundwater withdrawal is taking place because of increase in agricultural irrigation. In India Maximum arsenic content was observed in bhojpur (bihar),. The groundwater of Bihar states is affected with arsenic contamination. A long-term environmental planning is essential to blunt the danger from such pollution. Analyses of the arsenic content of 206 tube wells showed that 56.8% exceeded arsenic concentrations of 55 micro g/L, with 19.9% > 300 micro g/L, the concentration predicting overt arsenical skin lesions. 

On medical examination of a self-selected sample of 150 person, 13% of the adults and 6.3% of the children had typical skin lesions, an unusually high involvement for children, except in extreme exposures combined with malnutrition. The urine, hair, and nail concentrations of arsenic correlated significantly with drinking water arsenic concentrations up to 1,648 micro g/L. On neurologic examination, arsenic-typical neuropathy was diagnosed in 65% of the adults, a prevalence previously seen only in severe, subacute exposures. We also observed an apparent increase in fetal loss and premature delivery in the women with the highest concentrations of arsenic in their drinking water. 

The possibility of contaminated groundwater at other sites in the Middle and Upper Ganga Plain merits investigation. Arsenic poisoning culminates into potentially fatal diseases like skin and internal cancers. This paper reviews sources, speciation, and mobility of Arsenic and global overview of groundwater contamination. The critically reviews the Arsenic led human health risks, its uptake, metabolism, and toxicity mechanisms. Our research provides an overview of the state-of-the-art knowledge on the alternative Arsenic free drinking water and various technologies (oxidation, coagulation flocculation, adsorption, and microbial) for mitigation of the problem of As contamination of groundwater.

Adsorption of Acidic pollutants from Water using Biosorbents

A huge amount of waste is generated from the industries which cause the pollution of water; this waste is generated by the industries in large quantities. Acids are one such of a waste generated by these industries in the water bodies and causes an adverse impact on the aquatic ecosystems and inturn causes an negative impact on the human population and because of the harmful effects caused by these acids there is a need for the removal of these acidic pollutants from our water bodies. 


As these acids are water soluble [1] and colorless we need a technique to separate these acidic pollutants from water and at the same time determine their concentrations in water. So, in the present investigation we have used the Biosorption [2] for the removal of the acidic pollutants like Acetic, Oxalic and Phosphoric acids and the method of determination of concentration of these acids is through simple volumetric analysis .

For this biosorption technique the selection of various biosorbents were done and it was noticed that the sawdust along with mango leaves prove to be an effective mixture of biosorbent for the removal of the acidic pollutants from water. The Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms have been verified by the experimental data. The Biosorption studies were done at room temperature.

Cassia Alata Seed Activated Carbon for the Removal of Synthetic Dye Methyl Orange from Waste Water
In this study, the activated carbon was prepared from Cassia alata seeds using Hydrochloric acid. Removal of Methyl Orange (MO) was assessed by varying parameters like pH, adsorbent dose, concentration, contact time and temperature. The adsorption efficiency of the prepared activated carbon was estimated by using various isotherms and kinetic equations.

The isotherm parameters of the process were determined by using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm equations. The kinetic parameters were predicted with pseudo first order and pseudo second order equations. The kinetic data confirmed to the pseudo second order kinetic model, suggesting that the rate limiting steps may be chemisorptions.

The adsorbent material characterization was done by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and morphology of the surface adsorbent was identified with Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM).

An Alternative Fuel for Future Bio Fuel

June 15, 2016 0
An Alternative Fuel for Future Bio Fuel
Biofuels are gaining increased public and scientific attention, driven by factors such as oil price spikes, the need for increased energy security and concern over greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels. Most cars and trucks on the road today are fueled by gasoline and diesel fuels. These fuels are produced from oil, which is a nonrenewable fossil fuel. Non-renewable fuels depend on resources that will eventually run out. Renewable resources, in contrast are constantly replenished and will never run out. Biomass is one type of renewable resource, which includes plants and organic wastes. Biomass Program researchers are studying how to convert biomass into liquid fuels for transportation, called biofuels. The use of biofuels will reduce pollution as well as the country's dependence on non-renewable oil.
