India's water crisis
India is facing a water crisis due to insufficient supply to meet growing demand from households, industry, and agriculture. The main causes are a rising population, poor infrastructure for storage and distribution, overuse of groundwater, and pollution of existing supplies. The government is taking steps like watershed development projects and policies to encourage rainwater harvesting. Conservation efforts and improved management are needed to ensure access to clean water.
WATER SHORTAGE ITS CAUSES, IMPACTS AND REMEDIAL MEASURES IN PAKISTAN
with two thirds of the earths surface covered by water, it is evidently clear that water is one of the most important elements responsible for life on earth. It is not only vital for sustenance of life but equally essential for the socioeconomic development. The global fresh water shortage and food security issues related to teeming billions of population necessitated the shifting of fresh water from agriculture to other more pressing uses. The country is facing the worst ever crises of water shortage for last many years, as water available for any given use has become increasingly scarce.
Water and sustainable development
The document discusses water and sustainable development. It notes that water is critical for socio-economic development, health, and human survival. It then outlines three global sustainable development goals related to water: 1) achieving universal access to safe drinking water and sanitation by 2030, 2) reducing water usage in various sectors and increasing productivity by 2030, and 3) increasing the number of countries implementing water rights policies by 2030. It also discusses efforts to clean the Ganges River in India through natural wastewater treatment methods and managing water withdrawals.
WATER POLLUTION IN PAKISTAN
The document discusses water resources in Pakistan. It notes that Pakistan's water availability has declined significantly from 5,000 cubic meters per person annually in 1951 to around 1,000 cubic meters in 2010 due to rapid population growth. The majority of Pakistan's water comes from groundwater, but overuse is causing water tables to drop sharply. Water quality is also declining due to untreated municipal and industrial waste being discharged into surface water. This pollution poses major health risks to Pakistanis.
Importance of Water Resources in Pakistan
Water resources in Pakistan include both natural resources like rainfall, rivers, glaciers, and wells, as well as artificial resources like dams and reservoirs. Rainfall and glacial meltwater are particularly important, providing water for agriculture, hydropower, and replenishing surface water. The Indus River and its five major tributaries supply over 150 million acre feet of surface water annually. Dams like Mangla and Tarbela are also critical, while groundwater meets 37% of public water supply needs and is increasingly used for irrigation. Overall, Pakistan has an abundance of water resources but must manage them sustainably to ensure long-term availability.

EIA Report on Ring road lahore
This document provides a summary of an Environmental Impact Assessment report for the proposed Lahore Eastern Bypass project in Pakistan. The 18.3 km project aims to connect key roads and reduce traffic congestion in Lahore. The EIA study involved assessing baseline environmental conditions, potential impacts of construction and operation, and mitigation measures. Key findings include minor impacts on air quality, noise and vibration during construction which can be mitigated. The report recommends implementing the Environmental Management Plan during construction and operation to minimize impacts and enhance benefits of the project.
Oxygen demand
The document discusses adverse effects of oxygen demanding waste. It defines biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) as the amount of oxygen required by aerobic microorganisms to decompose organic matter in waste. High BOD levels can deplete oxygen in water bodies, harming aquatic life. The document outlines several factors that can contribute to high BOD, such as temperature increases promoting faster microbial growth, and eutrophication from excess nutrients causing algal blooms. Improper waste disposal such as littering and inadequate treatment of sewage and industrial runoff introduces oxygen-depleting organic matter into the environment.

Pollution of Ganga
King Bhagiratha brought the Ganges River from heaven to earth through his penance. Lord Shiva caught the mighty river in his matted hair to reduce its force so it would not damage the earth. The Ganges was once much cleaner but is now severely polluted by toxic and non-biodegradable waste from industries, cities, and farms, with coliform counts far exceeding standards and harming marine life, wildlife, and humans. The Indian government has attempted to address this through programs like the Ganga Action Plan, the National River Ganga Basin Authority, and Supreme Court actions, which use various water treatment techniques to intercept, divert, and treat sewage in the river. Some individuals have also worked
GANGA ACTION PLAN
The Ganga Action Plan was launched in 1986 to reduce pollution in the Ganga river, but efforts to decrease pollution levels continued beyond 2000 without success. Reasons for failure included a lack of cooperation between government bodies, inadequate monitoring, and insufficient public involvement. In 2009, the National Ganga River Basin Authority was constituted to plan, implement, and coordinate Ganga conservation efforts, including securing World Bank funds for pollution abatement projects. Addressing untreated sewage discharge, inadequate river flows, and lack of enforcement against industrial pollution will be needed for comprehensive solutions.
WATER CONSUMPTION.ppt
Hello, this media article is interesting because it shows how people systems, and organizations are using water. If compare the real world of water with 3 organizations. two of these three organizations may have a water process, with slightly the same data input for the number of liters of water, while the third organization can have a gap in water consumption related to the data that can show probably that the control of flows inside the water industries, manufacturers and processors is not defined in the same way in the organizations. So, in order to draw a conclusion about the performance of a water system, it is important to know the water organizations. Information water systems and media with data are telling a story (a narrative that can be changed according to the organization and the data collection that has been classified, arranged, and organized, in order to show the experience that can help to discover the business water system. So, it is important to use the data to build a business model that can serve to compare other water organizations and to make diagnostics on the water system and resource consumption that are extracted from the supply chain. When you have done this preliminary work, and you can discover that not all water is consumed by people in the same way per organization, you will be able to enhance and improve the water resources with innovation for the real world of water processing and people water, system, and organization. For me, it is important to come very close to the water users and their consumption experience and disaggregate the data per user, industries, wastes, and leaks, so that water increase, is not just related to population increase, but also various drivers that are either inter or extern to the water system and processing. (either for the households, the country or internationally, the need for transparency, relevance, comparability....Behind the scene is the idea that climate is exclusively an issue with the atmospheric water and hydrology, while at COP27, it was important for the stakeholders and United Nations to reintroduce the forgotten dimension of climate which is the water circulation which is creating all the impacts that are attributed to temperature increases superior to 1.5° Celsius
Water problems and solutions in Pakistan
This document discusses solutions to water pollution problems in Pakistan. It notes that water is essential for human, animal and plant life. It then outlines some of Pakistan's major water problems, including decreasing availability of water per capita. Some key causes of water crisis are natural factors like drought, as well as mismanagement of water resources through an inefficient irrigation system and loss of over 50% of diverted water. The impacts of water pollution are also reviewed. Some proposed solutions to water pollution problems include improving sewage systems, reducing development in traditional water recharging areas, preventing wastewater from entering water bodies, reusing water where possible, and protecting surface and groundwater sources from pollution.
water scarcity
Water scarcity is a major global challenge caused by uneven distribution of water resources and rising population. The problem stems from both physical water scarcity due to lack of water sources as well as economic scarcity from poor water management. As population and industrial use increase, stress on water resources grows. Solutions require improved conservation efforts like desalination as well as cooperation between countries on shared water resources. Without concerted global action, the water crisis threatens to worsen health, development and ecosystems.

Industrial pollution has significant negative environmental impacts. It contaminates water sources with toxins, releases pollutants into the air, and degrades soil quality. The types of pollution include air pollution from fossil fuel emissions, water pollution when industrial waste enters waterways, and soil pollution that affects agriculture and health. Long-term exposure to polluted air and water causes respiratory illnesses and other health problems. Wildlife also suffers as habitats are destroyed and species become extinct. Industrial pollution is a major contributor to global warming due to greenhouse gas emissions. While regulations aim to curb pollution, it remains a serious problem affecting communities and the environment worldwide.

It defines water pollution as the contamination of water bodies by direct or indirect discharge of pollutants without proper treatment. The main types are surface water and groundwater pollution. Pollution sources can be direct, such as from factories and waste treatment plants, or indirect, such as from soil runoff. Water pollution harms ecosystems, animals, and human health. Solutions include improving agricultural practices, sewage treatment, and educating the public.
Environmental Problems - water
The document discusses the global and Indian water crisis. It notes that over 1 billion people lack access to safe water and that water scarcity will affect 2/3 of the world's population by 2025. In India, water availability is very low compared to global averages and many areas already experience severe water stress. The major challenges facing India are rapid population growth, overexploitation of groundwater, pollution of existing supplies, and poor management. Potential solutions discussed include conservation efforts, water recycling, desalination plants, water footprinting, and rainwater harvesting.

India faces increasing water scarcity due to population growth, urbanization, and climate change. Agriculture, which uses 90% of India's water supply, and industry are major contributors to growing water demand. By 2050, water demand is expected to outstrip supply as population increases to 1.66 billion and urban population grows substantially. To address this, India must improve water management through conservation programs, rainwater harvesting, and policies around equitable water distribution between states.

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.

Recycling and Disposal on SWM Raymond Einyu pptx
Increasing urbanization, rural–urban migration, rising standards of living, and rapid development associated with population growth have resulted in increased solid waste generation by industrial, domestic and other activities in Nairobi City. It has been noted in other contexts too that increasing population, changing consumption patterns, economic development, changing income, urbanization and industrialization all contribute to the increased generation of waste.
With the increasing urban population in Kenya, which is estimated to be growing at a rate higher than that of the country’s general population, waste generation and management is already a major challenge. The industrialization and urbanization process in the country, dominated by one major city – Nairobi, which has around four times the population of the next largest urban centre (Mombasa) – has witnessed an exponential increase in the generation of solid waste. It is projected that by 2030, about 50 per cent of the Kenyan population will be urban.
Aim:
A healthy, safe, secure and sustainable solid waste management system fit for a world – class city.
Improve and protect the public health of Nairobi residents and visitors.
Ecological health, diversity and productivity and maximize resource recovery through the participatory approach.
Goals:
Build awareness and capacity for source separation as essential components of sustainable waste management.
Build new environmentally sound infrastructure and systems for safe disposal of residual waste and replacing current dumpsites which should be commissioned.
Current solid waste management situation:
The status.
Solid waste generation rate is at 2240 tones / day
collection efficiently is at about 50%.
Actors i.e. city authorities, CBO’s , private firms and self-disposal
Current SWM Situation in Nairobi City:
Solid waste generation – collection – dumping
Good Practices:
• Separation – recycling – marketing.
• Open dumpsite dandora dump site through public education on source separation of waste, of which the situation can be reversed.
• Nairobi is one of the C40 cities in this respect , various actors in the solid waste management space have adopted a variety of technologies to reduce short lived climate pollutants including source separation , recycling , marketing of the recycled products.
• Through the network, it should expect to benefit from expertise of the different actors in the network in terms of applicable technologies and practices in reducing the short-lived climate pollutants.
Good practices:
Despite the dismal collection of solid waste in Nairobi city, there are practices and activities of informal actors (CBOs, CBO-SACCOs and yard shop operators) and other formal industrial actors on solid waste collection, recycling and waste reduction.
Practices and activities of these actor groups are viewed as innovations with the potential to change the way solid waste is handled.
CHALLENGES:
• Resource Allocation.

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.

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.

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.

Water Pollution in Lahore, Pakistan
- 1. Water Pollution Presented By: Hamza Butt Mustafa Bin Tariq Usama Ahmad Environmental Economics A Case Study of Hudiara Drain
- 2. Introduction • Water pollution is environmental degradation. It happens when toxic materials, industrial waste, nuclear waste and other things like this contaminate water sources like rivers, canals, oceans and ground water, etc. • Water pollution is a big problem that Pakistan is facing today. • Most of life taking diseases are because of water pollution. • Hudiara Drain is big source of water pollution in Lahore and River Ravi. Water PollutionEnvironmental Economics
- 6. Sources • Most of the industries are dumping their waste in hudiara drain. • Hudiara drain end up in River Ravi which also contaminate it’s water. • Many farmers are using hudiara drain’s water for watering their crops and humans are consuming these toxic vegetables. • Mammals are also consuming toxic water which contains industrial waste, agricultural waste, and different toxic metals. Water PollutionEnvironmental Economics
- 7. Sources • Marine life is also very disturbed due to this pollutions. • Due to this polluted water air is also polluted and it effects air conditioners and households things like this. • That is why water pollutions is a great reason of high economic cost. Water PollutionEnvironmental Economics
- 8. Significance • For the business purposes area of Defense road is one of the best place to run factories, however due to Hudiara drain the water pollution can effect the working of the employees and the working of the business owner. • As a policy maker, we can control the water pollution by stopping industries from dumping their waste in the drainage. Moreover an effective drainage system can be introduced that prevents people from different types of diseases like Hepatitis, stomach disorders and typhoid etc. Water PollutionEnvironmental Economics
- 9. Data Analysis • The research was conducted through questionnaires using google forms. • The main purpose of research was to check how much water pollution of Hudiara drain is effecting the people living in it’s surroundings. • People that helped in solving these questionnaires were mostly farmers, shopkeepers and some were the people who passes from this area on daily bases. Water PollutionEnvironmental Economics
- 10. Data Analysis • From our survey all of the respondents know about water pollution. • All of respondents were some how concerned about water pollution. 45% people said they are extremely concerned about it. • All of them were aware of water pollution in their area. Which is a great thing. • Third questions tells that 55% of the water pollution is due to industrial waste and rest was due to fertilizer pollutants, ponds and bad drainage system. Water PollutionEnvironmental Economics
- 11. Data Analysis • Almost 75% people don’t know about the laws for water pollution. • Next questions shows that 50% people thinks that water pollution is the main cause of stomach problems in their area and 45% people said it is the main cause of Hepatitis in their area. • Almost 45% people said they are facing all kind of economic cost (Medical expense, Health cost, Household repairing cost). • On asking most of the people said they have to visit doctors at least one time in a month and some said they have visit two time • 55% people said they need to face the cost of almost 4k – 5k in a month and 25% said they have to spent 5k – 10k amount as economic cost. Water PollutionEnvironmental Economics
- 12. Policy • The Hudiara Drain should be regularly taken care off. • No waste material should be disposed off in the drain. • Taxes should be imposed on the polluters. • Fines should be imposed on the people polluting the Hudiara drain. • The cattle should not be allowed in the drain for cleaning purpose. • The drain should be covered to refrain people from polluting it. • The cleaning of the drain should be done after a specific period of time. • The should be a proper check and balance for the cleaning of the drain. • There should be strict rules for the maintenance of the Hudiara Drain. Water PollutionEnvironmental Economics
- 13. Conclusion The production of firms cannot be stopped but along with the production several steps should be taken to control water pollution. These steps are discussed in policy statement that there are laws for water pollution but these are not implemented or policies to control water pollution are not monitored properly. If these laws and policies are followed properly there will be less pollution and it will save several people’s and mammals lives. If taxes will be imposed on industries to dump their waste in water then there is a possibility that there will be less contaminated water which is effecting human health and marine life as well.
