It is no secret that a majority of the world’s population consumes unclean water. But how does water get polluted? What happens to people or other living creatures when they consume contaminated water? The power point presentation that follows will allow the teacher to show his or her students the different ways water can get polluted, how much man is responsible for the extent of water pollution, and what the impact of this pollution is on all living things, especially man. The teacher can also use this presentation to generate a discussion in class on possible solutions to this problem. Is it possible to treat contaminated water in some way to make it consumable? Are there ways in which we can prevent or avoid at least certain kinds of water pollution?
Water pollution affects plants and organisms living in these bodies of water; and, in almost all cases the effect is damaging either to individual species and populations, but also to the natural biological communities.

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

3. IMPORTANCE (FOR HUMAN)
The human body is approximately
70% water.
It helps in thermoregulation, transportation (within
body as well as outside for water vehicles),
detoxification in living beings.
It is main components for other fluids like; milk, juice
etc.
Water is needed not only for drinking, but also for
washing, cleaning, irrigation, transportation,
recreation etc.
#People can survive a few months without food but they
can survive a day or two without water.

4. WATER QUALITY
Water quality refers to the chemical,
physical, biological, and radiological
characteristics of water.
It is a measure of the condition of water
relative to the requirements of one or more
biotic species and or to any human need or
purpose.
The most common standards used to assess
water quality relate to health of
ecosystems, safety of human contact, and
drinking water. 4
5. Water Quality Standards
Safe drinking water is essential to health,
a basic human right and component of
effective policy for health protection.
Access to safe drinking water is important
as a health and development issue at a
national, regional and local level.
The primary purpose of guidelines for
drinking water quality is the protection of
public health
6. Improving access to safe drinking water to
result in benefits to health.
Every efforts should be made to achieve a
drinking water quality as safe as
practicable.
Diseases related to contamination of
drinking water constitute a major burden
on human health.
Interventions to improve the quality of
drinking water provide significant benefits
to health
7. WHO Guidelines
The guidelines for drinking water quality
recommended by WHO relates to
following variables:
a. Acceptability Aspects
b. Microbiological aspects
c. Chemical aspects
8. a)Acceptability Aspects
Turbidity <5NTU (Nephelometric turbidity
Unit)
Colour < 15 TCU (True colour unit)
Taste and odour: No unusual taste or
odour
Temperature: Cool water is more platable
(Source: National Drinking Water Quality
Standards, 2062)
9. b) Chemical Aspects
Chlorides or salinity- 200mg/l and maximum 500mg/l
Ammonia Usually <0.2mg/l
PH 6.5-8.5
Hydrogen sulphide Up to 0.1mg/l

11. HUMAN HEALTH
From the public health aspect, we have to prevent and
promote human health in every way. The water quality
also plays a great role in human health.
High water temperatures can increase rate of
photosynthesis; metabolic rates in aquatic organisms;
solubility and thus toxicity of certain compounds.
Water supply with pH values greater than 11 can cause
skin & eye irritations, as does a pH below 4.
Presence of excess of iron and manganese in water
causes discoloration, turbidity and deposits.
Iron and manganese bearing water have astringent
metallic or bitter taste.
Precipitation of iron and manganese imparts
colour to water from yellow to brownish
black, which becomes
objectionable to consumers. 11
12. Dissolved solids in water causes decreasement
in palatability and gastrointestinal irritation
Presence of ammonia indicates the possibility of
sewage pollution and the consequent possible
presence of pathogenic micro-organisms, which
may cause several water borne infections
Arsenic in water causes acute poisoning; Skin,
bladder and lung cancer; Clastogenic effects
Excess nitrate in water causes
Methaemoglobinaemia-blue baby syndrome;
Nitrosamines -cancercausing substances
12
13. All the things that causes change in water
quality are responsible for changes in human
health as people are in direct contact with
water either by consuming directly or by
using for domestic purpose, industrial
purpose or for recreational or other purposes.
