Excessive pumping of groundwater causing saline intrusion in coastal line. Constantly growing population mandates seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination plants in coastal cities of India. Product water is characteristically low in mineral content, alkalinity and pH and, therefore, needs to be conditioned (post treated).

Household water treatment (HWT) provides a means of improving water quality and preventing disease for people sans reliable access to safe drinking water. HWTS is in practice in the rural and urban areas of Dindigul district, Tamil Nadu.

The objective of this study is to evaluate contamination in groundwater due to distillery effluent irrigation. A study was conducted from 2008 to 2009 at 2 different times in a year, that is in March and October for 10 pre-identified locations at Gajraula and its suburbs of J. P. Nagar district, Uttar Pradesh.

Naturally occurring fluoride has been detected in ground water in the Sadayampatti village. The ground water is the major source of drinking and irrigation of this area. The different water samples were collected from this region and analyzed fluoride and various physico-chemical parameters.

Ferrite treatment is one of the promising technique to remove the impurities from water and wastewater system. A study was carried out for the preparation of copper ferrite and its applications in water and wastewater treatment processes as a pollutant scavenger.

The study involves the determination of some environmentally important physico-chemical parameters of drinking water in the predominantly rural Goalpara district of Assam.

Effluents of thermal power plants contain trace elements and heavy metals, needs remediation before discharging to the environment. Heavy metals tend to bioaccumulate in a biological organism, such as fish and thus enter the human food chain. Present study has been carried out to assess the contamination of water sources in Yellur and surrounding villages closer to a thermal power plant in Udupi district, Karnataka state.

The study was conducted in Madhupur National Park (MNP), which is very well known for its characteristics as deciduous forest. This study examined the constraints of park management, causes of deforestation and prospects of Madhupur Sal forests (Modhupur National Park) of Bangladesh.

A study on the kinetics of adsorption of arsenate and arsenite ions by 3 widely occurring and agriculturally important Indian soils was conducted by changing the various factors that influence the process of adsorption.

The study was conducted in rural area of Hisar district of Haryana. A sample of 120 children of primary and middle grade from 4 schools of 2 villages were taken for the present study.
