PESTICIDE INDUSTRIAL EFFLUENTS AND BIOLOGICAL TREATMENT
*Dipali Parmar, Dr. Ajit.V.Pandya, Preeti Singh
Abstract
The rapidly growing industrialization along with an increasing
population has resulted in the accumulation of a wide variety of
chemicals. Mismanagement of industrial effluents has resulted in
polluted groundwater, streams, lakes and rivers as well as damage to
wildlife and vegetation. Meanwhile, high levels of toxic contaminants
have been found in animals and humans, Thus, the frequency and
widespread use of man-made "xenobiotic” chemicals has led to a
remarkable effort to implement new technologies to reduce or
eliminate these contaminants from the environment. Effluent discharge
practices in India are too crude and society is in danger, especially in
the industrialized part of the cities. The aim of biological treatment of industrial effluents is to
remove or reduce the concentration of organic and inorganic compounds.
Keywords: Pollution, Environment, Effluents.
