SO2, As A Pollutant With High Reactivity, Attracts...Monica Turner
SO2 is a highly reactive pollutant that forms acid rain and sulfoxy radicals, which can seriously damage the environment. It impacts health and increases blood pressure, especially in winter. Pollutants interact with each other and weather conditions to negatively impact both the environment and human health at all ages. Light pollution disrupts sleep cycles and forces organisms to adapt unnaturally to artificial light.
This document discusses different types of environmental pollution including water, air, land, and noise pollution. It provides details on the causes, sources and effects of each type of pollution. The key points are: water pollution can be caused by municipal, industrial and agricultural waste; air pollution sources include carbon dioxide from deforestation and fossil fuels, and sulfur dioxide from burning sulfur fuels; land pollution results from construction, agriculture, and dumping of domestic and industrial waste; noise pollution mainly comes from transportation, construction, and industrial activities and can damage human health. Solutions proposed include reducing waste, recycling, environmental awareness, and regulations.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.
Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.
2. What is pollution ?
When Harmful Substances Contaminate the Environment it is
Called Pollution.
Pollution refers to the very bad condition of environment
in terms of quantity and quality .
3. Types of pollution
• Air Pollution
• Water pollution
• Noise Pollution
• Soil Pollution
• Thermal Pollution
• Personal Pollution
• Radioactive Pollution
4. Industrial Pollution
Industrial pollution is pollution which can be directly linked with
industry, in contrast to other pollution sources. This form of
pollution is one of the leading causes of pollution worldwide
According to the Environmental Protective Agency (EPA), it has
been estimated that up to 50% of the nation's pollution is
caused by industry.
5. Why people are nowadays more
concerned about industrial pollution
more than before?
In the past the number of factories were limited and
worked only a certain number of hours a day, the
levels of pollution did not grow significantly. But
when these factories became full scale industries
and manufacturing units, the issue of industrial
pollution started to take on more importance in
endangering people and the environment.
6. Industrial Revolution (1820 and 1840)
A Watt steam engine. James Watt transformed the steam
engine from a reciprocating motion that was used for
pumping to a rotating motion suited to industrial
applications. Watt and others significantly improved the
efficiency of the steam engine.
The Industrial Revolution marks a major turning point in
history; almost every aspect of daily life was influenced in
some way. In particular, average income and population
began to exhibit unprecedented sustained growth. Some
economists say that the major impact of the Industrial
Revolution was that the standard of living for the general
population began to increase consistently for the first time
in history, although others have said that it did not begin to
meaningfully improve until the late 19th and 20th centuries
8. Air Pollution
Air pollution occurs when different
toxic gases like carbon Di oxide,
nitrogen Di oxide etc. get emitted from
different industries and mix with
atmosphere and cause environmental
hazard.
9. The top countries with the
highest oxide gases
emissions
1- China
2- USA
3- Russia
4- India
5- Germany
Those countries are
producing a large amount
of toxic gases and release
it into the atmosphere
which causes many
catastrophic impacts.
10. The main cause of the ozone hole was
found to be gases that contained
Cholorofluorocarbons (CFCs)
OZONE HOLE
This layer is present in the atmosphere, and it
prevents too many harmful ultra violet rays from
reaching earth. Ultra violet rays have the
capability to destroy plants and animals and can
cause skin cancer to human beings.
11. Acid Rain
Air pollutants can trigger a chemical reactions that create acidic
compounds which can cause harm to humans, animals and plants
when sulfuric acid combines
with the water droplets that
make up clouds, the water
droplets become acidic, forming
acid rain. When acid rain falls
over an area, it can kill trees and
harm animals, fish, and other
wildlife.
12. Global Warming
Global warming is primarily a problem of too much
carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere - which acts as
a blanket, trapping heat and warming the planet
A warming world also has the potential to change
rainfall and snow patterns, reduce lake ice cover,
melt glaciers, increase sea levels, and change
plant and animal behavior.
13. Air Pollution Impacts:
Air pollution kills 3.3 million people
every year
According to a new study by Harvard University
There are many diseases that may be caused
by air pollution. Such as Asthma and Lung
Cancer. Also increases the risk of heart
disease and stroke.
14. Water Pollution
occur when pollutants (chemicals
or substances that make water
contaminated) are discharged
directly or indirectly into water
without enough treatment to get
rid of harmful compounds.
Industries cause huge water
pollution with their activities.
15. Many industrial facilities use freshwater to carry away waste from the
plant and into rivers, lakes and oceans.
negative impacts on wild animals and the environment as a whole.
16. Water is essential to human life and
There are many diseases caused by
water pollution.
1- Cholera
2- Diarrhea
3- Hepatitis
4- Typhoid Fever
5- Malaria
17. Soil Pollution
Large quantity of solid wastes
like unused and rejected
chemicals, unwanted industrial
wastes generated (plastic or
wooden solids) are dumped
over on the surface of soil by
almost all industries with
difference in degree.
The industrial waste lingers in the
soil surface for a long time and
makes it unsuitable for use
18. Industrial activity has been the biggest contributor to the problem in the last
century, especially since the amount of mining and manufacturing has
increased.
19. Berkeley Pit Lake
the lake is known as the ‘most deadly lake in the United States’. It was a copper
mine, groundwater pumped into it and now it hold 40 billion gallons of acid water
and toxic chemicals
20. Soil Pollution Impacts:
It Can lead to water pollution if toxic chemicals leach into
groundwater
Many common soil pollutants are carcinogenic (cancer-cause)
It causes changes in Soil Structure
21.
22. Solutions
Air pollution solution:
The industries should implement Scrubber systems
are a diverse group of air pollution control devices
that can be used to remove some particulates
and/or gases from industrial exhaust streams or
chimneys.
23. Water pollution solution:
An effective solution to industrial water pollution is to ensure that pollution from
industrial wastewater does not reach waterways unless it is treated by an Effluent
treatment plant.
