Description
Industrial discharge waters, especially those of producers of detergents are one of the main polluters of surface waters in Prizren. The greatest polluters are: vehicle laundry and laundry of mega clothes, as well as factories producing liquid detergents, as well as powder ones. Concentration of active substances and perborate polyphosphate detergents also increase the wastewater from households. Therefore, we can say that the washing detergents, cleaning, are not safe for the environment, all of those are in varying degrees dangerous pollutants. Their presence represents the most acute problem of water supply in the city of Prizren. In this paper are treated physico-chemical indicators of pollution that may be caused by emissions from factories producing washing substances in the region of Prizren, Kosovo. And especially, will be treated contaminants from the manufacturing industry to washing agents, whose production due to massive use causes the polluting of current waters. This has happened because they have not paid attention to the chemical and physical- chemical features of phosphates and other compounds that affect eutrophication of Lumbardhi River. The problem of eutrophication also represents a form of disruption of the ecological balance of nature and consist with increasing phosphorus compounds in waters, where it causes the rapid development of the planktons and algae, causing damage to water quality. The Microbiologic problem of dissolution of tensids even at low concentrations causes creating dense and stable foam in waters surface, which prevents digestion of oxygen from the air into the water and thus the question of the survival of flora and fauna in those waters of the river Lumbardhi, as well as its use for drinks. This problem is caused by the wide use of detergents that contained tensids with branched range of hydrocarbons, which as the main representative is dodecyl benzene - sulfonate of tetramer type.

Physical-Chemical characteristics of the Substances Before and After the discharge of factories of the detergents that can cause increase of the degree of the eutrophication of surface waters in the city of Prizren

Industrial discharge waters, especially those of producers of detergents are one of the main polluters of surface waters in Prizren. The greatest polluters are: vehicle laundry and laundry of mega clothes, as well as factories producing liquid detergents, as well as powder ones. Concentration of active substances and perborate polyphosphate detergents also increase the wastewater from households. Therefore, we can say that the washing detergents, cleaning, are not safe for the environment, all of those are in varying degrees dangerous pollutants. Their presence represents the most acute problem of water supply in the city of Prizren. In this paper are treated physico-chemical indicators of pollution that may be caused by emissions from factories producing washing substances in the region of Prizren, Kosovo. And especially, will be treated contaminants from the manufacturing industry to washing agents, whose production due to massive use causes the polluting of current waters.
