Water Quality and Contamination Research and its Importance Ursurla L. C. Waller SCI 207 Dependence of Man on the Environment Professor Wayne Davis 2014 September 20 Abstract This report analyses the ability of ordinary substances to pollute water sources‚ filtration techniques‚ as well as the quality of tap and bottled waters. This report discusses the availability of clean water sources‚ factors that affects the quality of water‚ agents of water contamination‚ and how the earth naturally filters

Oil Spills Pollution in the ocean is a major problem that is affecting the ocean and the rest of the Earth. Pollution is the ocean directly affects ocean organisms and indirectly affects human heath and resources. Oil spills is one of the harmful materials that are a major source of pollution in the ocean. “Oil spills stem from accidents involving tankers‚ barges‚ pipelines‚ refineries‚ and storage facilities‚ often while the oil is being transported to its users.” (NOAA 2012) Based on information

A tanker’s deadweight is a measure of ship’s carrying capacity in tons. It includes both the weight of the cargo (in the case of ship’s carrying crude the cargo is the crude oil) and the weight of the fuel the tanker carries for her own propulsion purposes. Crude containers come in an enormous range of sizes like

increase rate‚ and life expectancy. First of all‚ these two countries have drastically different Crude Birth Rates‚ or CBR for short. Crude Birth Rates are devised by how many babies are born per one thousand people in one year. The CBR in Haiti is 25.63 babies per one thousand people. That means if you were to take one thousand people‚ there would be roughly 26 babies born in 2016 alone. However‚ the Crude Birth Rate in Hungary is far smaller than that of Haiti. Hungary only has a CBR of 9.20. That

Algae Biofuel around the World There are several countries that use algae as a substance to create usable and efficient biofuel. Several of these countries are primarily found in Europe. Places such as Amsterdam and Paris use algae biofuel as a source of power. Recently several universities in London‚ England such as Cambridge and Cranfield University have begun develop studies in this field. This study in England will hopefully spread throughout the entire continent. As well as this‚ places

it constitutes about two-third of our body and the innumerous benefits and importance make it a non-negotiable part of our lives. At the first glance and sniff we know if the water looks clean and odorless then comes the question of microbial contamination‚ something the naked eye cannot see. Because of the nature of water‚ its solubility and availability‚ it can be host to many microbes and become the source of many waterborne diseases. Growing population‚ industrialization and rapid urbanization
