Keywords: Wastewater. Thane, Wastewater utilization
Abstract: The city of Thane receives 320 MLD of water from water supply agencies, per day. Only 56 MLD of water is treated while 210 MLD of water go untreated. This water is dumped in Thane creek through 12 nallahs (open drains) in the city. We collected a representative sample from Wagle Estate nallah and analysed it for purification potential. We found that this water after purification, can be safely used for purposes such as irrigation.

Keywords: Photochemical degradation, photo-Fenton, Bromo thymol blue, Advanced oxidation process (AOPs)
Abstract: Oxidation of pollutants in waste water by photo-Fenton reaction has proven an eco-friendly and economical method. Oxidation of Bromo thymol blue, (an acid dye) using photo-Fenton reagent was investigated under ambient conditions. The effect of different parameters like the concentration of ferric ion, bromo thymol blue and hydrogen peroxide, as well as pH, light intensity etc, on the reaction rate has been observed. A tentative mechanism for the degradation of Bromo thymol blue by photo-Fenton ' s reaction has been proposed.

Abstract: Freshwater ecosystem is key component in the food web and plays an important role in nutrient recycling. The plankton both as producers and consumers play an important role in the energy transfer in an ecosystem. In this investigation, water samples were collected from Pechiparai Reservoir (Freshwater) and different physical, chemical and biological (Phyto and Zooplankton) characteristics analysis were done during the period of March 2010 to August 2010. The European Engineer Mr. Minchin Alexander constructed Pechiparai Reservoir during the period of 1897-1906. The catchment area of the reservoir is 207.19 Km2. From this observation, Five divisions of different Phytoplankton (104 species) and Four different groups of Zooplankton (30 species) were identified. The Phytoplankton was dominated by Bacillariophyceae (65.16%) followed by Cyanophceae (10.44%), Chlorophyceae (10.32%), Euglenophyceae (9.62%) and Dinophyceae (4.45%). Four groups of Zooplankton viz., Rotiferans were the most dominant forms (35.40%) followed by Crustaceans (30.21%), Protozoans (21.17%) and Cnidaria (13.21%) were recorded. The Phytoplankton were predominant members of this biotope.

Keywords: Porteresia coarctata, Net Assimilation Rate, Plant Growth Rate, Plant Biomass, Plant Organic Matter and Plant Organic Carbon
Abstract: The present study was conducted from the month of April 2010 to March 2011 in the laboratory of the Institute of Marine Sciences and Fisheries, University of chittagong, Bangladesh. Plant Biomass (PB), Plant Growth Rate (PGR), Net Assimilation Rate (NAR), Plant Organic Carbon (POC) and Plant Organic Matter (POM) of salt marsh plant Porterecia coarcta were studied to find out the Carbon Assimilation. Net Assimilation Rate of the studied plant was recorded 0.0097 gm/m2/s to 0.0289 gm/m2/s. Plant growth rate was found to be 5.93 gm/m2/d to 8.619 gm/m2/d. Plant biomass was recorded 336.66 gm/m2 to 595.113 gm/m2. Plant Growth Rate substantially increased with the increase of biomass. On the contrary, Net Assimilation Rate was decreased with the increase of age of the plant.

Keywords: White rot fungi, paper and pulp, effluent, Daedalelopsis confragrosa, Phellinus pectinatus
Abstract: In the present study two white rot ligninolytic fungi Daedaeleopsis confragrosa and Phellinus pectinatus were used to analyze its ability to decolorize effluent collected from four different stages namely Chlorinatin stage, Alkali extraction stage, Hypo chlorite stage and Chlorine dioxide stage of the paper and pulp industry. It was found that the extent of decolorization was not adversely affected by color intensity except at the lower level but certainly the BOD and COD level decreased. Addition of glucose (0.1%) to decolorization media stimulated growth of fungi faster and reduced BOD and COD level faster. Both the fungi have been shown to be effective to combat the lignin and chloride containing effluent.

Abstract: The aim of this study was to assess the utility value of poultry drops compost as organic fertilizer source for seed germination, growth and yield potentials of Cluster Bean in pot culture experiments. Three treatments with a control were maintained under greenhouse condition. Among the treatments, the poultry compost + NPK combined treatment proved to be superior over the other treatments in enhancing crop growth and yield. The treatments enhanced the seed germination 10-61%, plant growth 105-125%, number of leaves 34-75%, fresh leaf weight 9-123%, plant fresh weight 24-89%, dry matter weight 4-29% and 29-43% vegetable yield. The poultry manure plus NPK combined shows an increased production of biochemical constituents and yield parameters. The study strongly supports the incorporation of organics with inorganic fertilizers in conventional agricultural for sustainable crop productivity.

Keywords: Pollution, domestic sewage, industrial effluent, physico-chemical factors
Abstract: In the present study, various physico-chemical factors were assessed for the whole year (Jan 2009-Dec 2010), to determine the impact of domestic sewage and industrial effluents on the water quality of the Khan river. Physico-chemical factors like pH, temperature, conductivity, ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, sulphate, phosphate, total hardness, calcium hardness, chloride, BOD, COD, Ca, Na and K were found with maximum concentration during premonsoon. While, concentration of total solids, total suspended solids and DO was maximum during monsoon. The positive correlation was observed among all the physico-chemical factors except DO. The study reveals that the huge influx of doemstic sewage and industrial effluent are the key factors enhancing pollution load in the Khan River.
