Prevention of water pollution

Prevention of water pollution

To prevent water contamination does not occur, in our activities to meet the necessities of life should not increase the occurrence of such pollutants do not dispose of household waste, hospital waste, industrial waste in vain, do not waste water into rivers, lakes or to in the gutter. Do not use fertilizers and pesticides unnecessarily, as runoff from fert’ilizers and pesticides will pollute the water in the farm environment. Do not use phosphate detergents, since phosphates compounds is food for aquatic plants like water hyacinth can cause water pollution.

Water pollution that has occurred naturally for example, the amount of heavy metals that enter and accumulate in the human body, these heavy metals can poison the body through the digestive organs because the body is consuming plants that contain heavy metals although needed in small amounts. The buildup of these heavy metals occur in plants because of contamination by industrial waste. To overcome in order to avoid the accumulation of heavy metals, the waste processing industry should be undertaken prior to discharge into the environment.

The process of pollution prevention is better than the prevention of pollution that has occurred.

Waste treatment

Industrial waste before disposal to land fill, flows into rivers or gutters should be collected in a space provided, then processed, so that when forced to be discharged into the river does not cause water pollution. Even if you cannot be discarded after being processed into the river but can be used again for industrial purposes alone.

Solid waste from households in the form of plastic or synthetic fiber that cannot be broken down by microorganisms separated and then processed into other materials that are useful, for example, can be processed into mats. Organic waste that can be broken down by soil microorganisms buried in a hole, then when it's rot can be used as fertilizer.
