An Eco friendly Waste Water Treatment USING Sand Bead Filtration

Abstract

Water is one of the most important and abundant compounds in the ecosystem. All living things on Earth need water to survive and grow. So far, the Earth is about 70% of the water on Earth. In some cases, water pollution occurs through natural processes, but most of the pollution is due to human activity. Wastewater from the community is called wastewater or sewage. Sewage is not treated before it is discharged into waterways, so it can cause serious pollution in certain environments. Therefore, we must use environmentally friendly treatment methods. In this study, a natural waste filter consisting of wastewater filtered through sand and large gravel was filled at the bottom of the container, and then small gravel, gravel, coarse sand, fine sand, activated carbon, coconut shell, straw, and scrubber sponge were filled. , Rice husk and sugar cane husk. Analyze pH, EC, total solids, Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand COD, calcium, and magnesium in filtered samples. Chloride, sulfate, phosphate, sodium, potassium, ammonium, nitrite and nitrate.
