摘要

Water pollution is a major environmental issue, especially in cities where the discharge of untreated wastewater affects aquatic life and public health. The present study examines the water quality of Ward 9 (Canal-2), Ward 10 (Raw Water Channel), and a Pond in Coimbatore City Municipal Corporation, Coimbatore, Tamilnadu, India. The pre and post-treatment water samples were analyzed for critical parameters such as pH, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), and nutrient concentrations (Nitrate, Nitrite, and Ammonia Nitrogen). Outcome indicates that Ozone and Anolyte treatment significantly affected organic pollutants since in Ward 9, TSS decreased from 19.3 mg/L to traces and COD/BOD were eliminated. Although, in Ward 10, COD and BOD levels also continued to remain critical at 722 mg/L and 180 mg/L, respectively, and required attention. Biological purity of pond water improved after treatment but TDS content increased and ionic variations occurred. The result acknowledges the efficacy of Ozone and Anolyte in wastewater treatment but demands that some more measures be taken to fight residual pollutants.
