Water Analysis : To Estimate The Amount Of Phosphorus Phosphate In The Given Sample

INTRODUCTION:
Phosphorus Occurs in natural waste water almost soley as phosphate. These are classified as orthophosphate condensed phosphate organically bound phosphate are applied as fertillizer to agricultural residential cultivated land are carried out to ground waters. This forms of phosphate arise from variety of sources. This occurs in solution in particle or detriters or in bodies of in aquatic organism.
Phosphorus is essential for growth of organism and can be nutrient that limits the primary productivity of body of water in instancy where phosphorus broth liniting nutrient or treated or treated water. Agricultural orannage certain industrial waste water. Test immunate photo lequane micro, macro organism in new senic quantity. Phosphate occurs in bottom sediment in biological sludge and both precipitated in organic forms incorporated into organic compound.

             -  Solution 15ml
             -  Solution 30ml
Let all reagent before they are mixed in order given above. Mixed wel, After addition of reagent, If turbidity appear combine reagent. Shake it let it Shake for few minutes. This reagent stable for 4 hours.
 6. KH2PO4 (219.5mg) (1ml=500𝝁g)
     -D/W (100ml)
 7. Standerd phosphate solution.
    - stike solution (10ml)
    - D/W (90ml)
 8. Pipette, test tube
 9. Spectrophotmetric meter.
PROCEDURE
         -       Take different aliquote solution 1ml to 5ml.
         -       Don’t add phosphate in blank tube.
         -       Take three different unknown sample.
         -        Make final volume in 10ml D/W.
         -         Add 1.6 ml of combine reagent of all the tube.
         -         Incubate at room temperature for 15mins.
         -         Measure the absorbance of 800nm using spectrophotometer.
         -         Prepare standard graph of absorbance of standard sample against concentration of phosphate.
         -         Find out the Conc. Of unknown sample using std.curve.

Process of Wastewater Treatment Plant

PROCESS OF WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT : Wastewater enters the treatment plant First it goes through a fine screen, next to aerated grit chamber, and then enters the primary clarifier. Sludge settled in the primary clarifier is sent to the fermenters and then to digesters. After the primary treatment, wastewater flows into (BNR) bioreactors. The activated sludge is separated in the following secondary clarifier. The clear effluent flows into Ultraviolet (UV), then to River. Settled activated sludge in the secondary clarifier is pumped back to BNR. Excess sludge is pumped into the dissolved air floatation (DAF) unit for thickening. Wastewater is collected in sanitary sewers (a complex network of underground pipes). Upon reaching the treatment plant, the wastewater flows through a series of treatment processes which remove the wastes from the

Water Analysis : Estimation Of Nitrate Nitrogen In Given Water Sample

INTRODUCTION: Nitrate is found only in small amounts in fresh domestic wastewater but in the effluent of nitrifying biological treatment plants nitrate may be found in concentration up to 30mg nitrate as nitrogen/L. It is essential nutrient for many photosynthetic autotrophs and in some cases has been identified as the growth-limiting nutrient. Generally 10mg nitrate nitrogen/L of drinking water is recommended to prevent disorder called methemoglobinemia in infants. Determination of nitrate nitrogen is difficult because of the relatively complex procedure. Although UV technique that measures the absorbance of nitrate at 220nm is suitable for measuring nitrate in wastewater. PRINCIPLE: This technique is useful for the screening of sample that has low organic content that is uncontaminated natural water and potable water supplies. The nitrate calibration curve follows Beer's Law up to 11 mgN/L. Measurement of UV absorbance at 220nm enables rapid determination of nitrate

Water Analysis : To Study The Various Method of Collection and Storage of Water Samples

Image
  AIM : To Study The Various Methods of Collection and Storage of Water Samples  Introduction :- The objective of sampling is to collect a portion of material small enough in volume to be transported conveniently and handled in the laboratory while still accurately representing the material being sampled. This objective that relative proportions or concentration of all components will be the same in the samples as in the material being sampled, and that the sample will be handled in such a way that no significant changes in composition occur before the test are made. In some case the samples are presented to the laboratory for specific determination with the sample collector taking responsibility for the validity of the sample. Because of the increasing importance of the ability to verify the accuracy and representativeness of data, greater emphases are place on proper sample collection and preservation techniques. Often in water and water work, the laboratory cond
