Energy Efficiency Engineering
Description
The fate and transport of many anthropogenic pollutants have an impact not only on hydrological cycles, but also on physico-chemical processes.Water resource monitoring will assess the quality of water, identify its depreciation, and help policymakers make decisions that will preserve not only natural areas but also improve quality of life.Therefore the purpose of this paper is to evaluate the physical and chemical parameters of the locations where the river Lukac flows into the Erenik river. Erenik is a river in the western part of Kosovo.The water quality of the Ereniku river comes from anthropogenic activities, mainly from sewage discharges, from agriculture, as well as from various factors that perform their activity in the watershed of the Ereniku river. Samples were taken from the river in June 2017 in three stations and analyzed the physical-chemical parameters such as: Iron, Manganese, Amonjaku, Nitrite, Nitrate, Phosphate, Aluminum,spending of potassium permanganate, dissolved oxygen, turbulence, pH, electrical conductivity, Alkalinity, COD, BOD, N and P inorganic forms, etc.Water samples were analyzed in the physicochemical laboratory such as: pH meter, conductometry, turbidometry, atomic absorption method, spectrophotometric methods and classical chemical analysis methods (volymmetry).Parameters such as pH, temperature, hardness, blur are comparable to the qualities of mountain rivers, which are not significantly affected by human activities.The TSS, alkaline and EC values are higher where they show the influence of human activity and sewage, as well as the COD and BOD values show the impact of human activity.
