Chapter one Introduction In industrial processing water is used in numerous applications requiring likewise different qualities of water. Examples of different use are cooling water‚ water for rinsing and chemical production‚ boiler feed water‚ purified water‚ water for injection‚ just to mention a few of those. On a chemical site or within a factory commonly a central water production unit is providing the basic amount of water in several qualities. These water supply units are using more and

happens to be a far away pH‚ then we need to focus in the test and nothing else. It would be the same for iron‚ copper turbidity etc. What my data is saying is saying is for test A‚ the pH was bad. There were no nitrates. The acme water had copper‚ the distilled water had none. Same with iron. Acme had tons‚ distilled water had none. Acme water had many suspended particles for turbidity‚ distilled water was clear. The acme water smelt acidic. I can conclude on that the test A for acme water was not

After one week they were observed for distinguishable changes by the turbidity showing an indication of bacterial growth‚ or the clarity an indication of no survival. The second part of the experiment was to examine the effect temperature had on the survival ability of the five bacteria mentioned above. One of the five bacterial

Water samples were also taken‚ and were tested for‚ conductivity‚ PH levels and Turbidity.

Causes and mechanisms of water resources degradation Logging of forest Logging is the cutting‚ skidding‚ on-site processing‚ and loading of trees or logs onto trucks. Logging and the subsequent denudation of the forest cover increases surface runoff since there is less oppurtunity for rainwater to sink into the ground. .Retarded or supressed infiltration accelerates overland flow production‚hastening delivery of rainwater into streams and rivers‚ the oftentimes the water ends up as floodwater

because of the failure to count and record the number of viable cells after a 24-hour incubation period. The measurement of absorbance may be used to analyze bacterial growth since the absorbance or the measure of the turbidity is directly proportional to the number of cells. Turbidity results from the deflection of light by bacterial cells present‚ thus‚ the more turbid the broth is‚ the more bacterial cells are present and the higher the absorbance reading is. There are four characteristic

for things to grow. The second test was testing the hardness‚ nitrates and nitrites‚ and the pH level of the creek. Reasons why we test this is because only certain levels of pH support life and water hardness and nitrates also affects growth. Turbidity test is where you fill a tube and measure how many inches till you can see the bottom of the tube. This test shows how dirty or clean the water is and how visible the water is. The last test was for dissolved oxygen within the creek and this one
