INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
Water pollution occurs when
contaminants enter water bodies, such
as rivers, lakes, oceans, and
groundwater, leading to detrimental
effects on the environment and human
health. These contaminants can
encompass a wide range of substances,
including chemicals, pathogens,
nutrients, and physical pollutants.
• Water treatment is a crucial process that aims to make water suitable for specific
uses by removing impurities and contaminants. The primary goal is to provide safe
drinking water, protect public health, and safeguard the environment. Water
treatment involves various physical, chemical, and biological processes tailored to
the specific characteristics of the water source.
