Abstract

The waste water purification and industrial effluents degradation studies have been taken up in the present study using the species of micro organisms collected from wood chips, stream water soil, domestic waste water and effluent from the industries around Khopoli, Lonavala and Bhimashanakr forest. The water and industrial effluent samples were collected together from the Khopoli region for the desired study. The isolated purified cultures can be tested with waste water samples under specific cultural parameters. The conventional characteristics along with acidity, alkalinity, TDS, suspended solids pH, DO, COD, BOD, oils and greases, phenolics and cholorides were analyzed. The effect of micro organisms on purification with respect to different parameters have also been studied. It is found that the posttreatment waste water, effluents can be utilized for different purposes like gardening, floor washing.
