Water treatment plant presentation
We has been dedicated in offering full set of water treatment solutions, such solutions can be called one-stop solutions which include system design, equipment manufacturing, project construction and after-sales service. What we can do have covered such areas as municipal tap water projects, drinkable pure water projects, industrial water projects, water-saving projects, sewage treatment engineering, constructed wetlands building, rivers & lakes governing projects and so on.
Hardness of water
Generally hardness of water is defined as the measure of capacity of water to precipitate soap i.e., the capacity of the water to form lather with soap.
Hard water contains dissolved minerals such as Ca2+, Mg2+, Fe3+, SO4 2- ,etc.,
The degree of hardness is measured in Parts Per Million(ppm) or Grams per Gallon(GPG).
Hard water is better for drinking because it contains minerals.
Soft water is better for cleaning because it doesn’t form scum with soap.
Hardness of water is a measure of the total concentration of the calcium and magnesium ions expressed as calcium carbonate.
There are two types of hardness
1. Temporary hardness
Temporary Hardness is due to the presence of bicarbonates of calcium and magnesium. It can be easily removed by boiling.
Ca (HCO3 ) CaCO3 +CO2 +H2O
2. Permanent hardness
Permanent Hardness is due to the presence of chlorides and sulphates of calcium and magnesium. This type of hardness cannot be removed by boiling.
Water quality and sampling
Water quality can be assessed through various physical, chemical, and biological indicators. It depends on factors like geology, ecosystem, and human activities. Standards are set based on intended uses like drinking, industrial, or environmental. Water is sampled and tested using on-site or laboratory methods to monitor these indicators. Maintaining adequate water quality is important for public health and ecosystem protection.
Water impurities, bilological, chemical, physical
Water is never completely pure due to dissolved minerals and gases from the air, soil, and rocks. Common impurities include calcium, magnesium, iron, and contaminants from human and industrial activities. Impurities can dissolve in water and make it unsafe. The quality and type of impurities varies based on the water source, such as surface water, groundwater, or water from storage reservoirs. Impurities are usually measured in parts per million and can include physical contaminants like sediment, chemical contaminants, and biological contaminants like bacteria, viruses, and parasites.

Water Pollution
This document provides an overview of water pollution and water quality parameters. It defines water pollution and describes various water sources. It then discusses key water quality parameters including physical parameters like turbidity, taste and odor, temperature; chemical parameters like pH, hardness, metals, BOD and COD; and biological parameters like pathogens. The document also covers water quality monitoring and control policies in Malaysia. It concludes with discussing effects of pollutants on the environment and humans and principles of water treatment.
desposal by dilution
Disposal by dilution is a process where treated sewage or effluent is discharged into a river or stream. For dilution to be an effective means of disposal, certain conditions must be met, such as the sewage being relatively fresh, the receiving water having a high dissolved oxygen content, and the receiving water not being used for navigation downstream. The amount of treatment required depends on the dilution factor - a higher dilution factor means less treatment is required. Natural processes like dilution, sedimentation, sunlight, oxidation, and reduction help purify the sewage over time as it mixes with the receiving water.
Ground water resources
The document discusses different sources of surface water and groundwater. It states that surface water sources like rivers, lakes, ponds receive water from glaciers and evaporation from the sea. These secondary sources can be used for water supply after purification. Rivers have less pollution as they are moving water and can be used for drinking after mild filtration. Ponds and lakes contain stagnant water and require harsher treatment before use. Reservoirs provide a regulated supply of more pure water collected and stored behind dams. The quality and quantity of surface water is impacted by wet and dry periods with quality improving when quantities rise and worsening when they decrease.
