Abstract

This review paper focuses on process of water treatment using different methods. Water reuse is called the greatest challenge of the 21st century. It is the only solution to close the loop between water supply and wastewater disposal. In many parts of the world reclaimed water is used as a water resource. Rivers, lakes are currently degraded by both natural and anthropogenic activities, which deteriorate the water quality, affecting the ecological balance, pushing them to brink of extinction in the process of unplanned development, giving rise to planning for suitable conservation strategies. Different Parameters were analyzed like pH, COD, BOD, Chloride, Alkalinity, Total Hardness, Calcium Hardness, Magnesium, Magnesium Hardness, DO and TDS. The result indicates that the river, lakes are in polluted condition. A systematic study has been carried out to assess the water quality.
