2. THERMAL POLLUTION
Thermal pollution is the harmful release of heat effluents
from various power plants and industries into a water
body that degrades the water quality and also changes
it’s ambient temperature.

3. SOURCES OF THERMAL POLLUTION
 ANTROPOGENIC SOURCES OF THERMAL
POLLUTION.
 NATURAL SOURCE IS THERMAL POLLUTION.

4. ANTHROPOGENIC SOURCES
 Nuclear power plants.
 Coal fired plants.
 Industrial effluents.
 Domestic sewage.
 Hydroelectric power plant.
 Thermal shock.

5. NATURAL SOURCES OF THERMAL POLLUTION:
 Geothermal vents.
 Hot springs

6. IMPACTS OF THERMAL POLLUTION
 Reduction in DO level.
 Change in water property.
 Toxicity increases.
 Disturbances in biological activities.
 Reproduction capability.
 Change in metabolic rate.
 Prone to diseases.
 Algal bloom increases.
 DO demand increases.
 BOD increases.
 Longevity shortened.
 Mortality rate increases.
 Marine biota affected.
 Invasion by new species.
 Affect in distribution of organism.
 Food chain disturbed.

7. CONTROL MEASURES :
 The plant must be built away from rivers.
 Cooling ponds must be used.
 Dispersion of heated water through turbulent.
 Diversion of heated water to long distance pond.
 Establishing spray towers.
 Establishing cooling towers.

8. MEASUREMENT OF THERMAL POLLUTION
 Determination of physical parameters.
 Electronic temperature meter.
 Dissolved oxygen meter {DO meter}
 Lux meter

9. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: -
I am very thankful to whole team of academic
writing to provide us the basic and important
knowledge of writing research paper, articles,
review paper etc.
