Wastewater Volume

Wastewater volume. Wastewater refers to water containing any substances or undesirable pollutants. The contamination by these pollutants changes the properties of the water until it is in a condition where it cannot be returned for use. Pollutants in wastewater include oil, grease, detergents, soap, pesticides, organic matter that causes rot and various pathogens. The sources of wastewater can be divided into two main sources as follows: 1. Wastewater from community sources, coming from activities for human livelihood, such as buildings, houses, housing estates, condominiums, hotels, fresh markets, hospitals, etc. Studies have found that the deterioration of canals is caused by this type of wastewater up to approximately 75%. 2. Wastewater from industrial activities, including wastewater from the production process of industrial factories, as well as high-temperature cooling water, and wastewater from workers' bathrooms. The deterioration of canals is caused by this type of wastewater approximately 25%. Although the volume is not very large, the pollutants in the wastewater are toxic chemicals, various heavy metals, and various organic matter with high concentration.
