Impact of physicochemical parameters on the meeting of Erenik river and White Drin river
Session
Energy Efficiency Engineering
Description
The purpose of this paper is to evaluate physico-chemical parameters as the transport of many anthropogenic pollutants has an impact on this process. Erenik water is very important because it not only causes harmful environmental effects on the bed, but also becomes a significant barrier factor in its downstream and especially in the White Drin.
Samples were taken from the rivers under study, as well as after their meeting, in July 2019 at three stations, and physico-chemical parameters such as: Iron, Manganese, Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrates, Phosphates, Aluminum, Potassium Permanganate Consumption, dissolved oxygen , turbidity, pH, electrical conductivity, alkalinity, COD, BOD, etc.
Water samples were analyzed in the physicochemical laboratory, such as: pH-metrics, conductometry, turbidometry, atomic absorption method, spectrophotometric method and classical methods of chemical analysis (volumetry). Water samples were taken in polyethylene plastic bottles that had previously been thoroughly purified with a 1.5dm3 volume, 20 cm below the water surface. The bottles were transferred to a 4ºC hand refrigerator and sent to the laboratory for further analysis.
As the flow of both rivers in the study area is spatially flowing, then the water quality of the rivers is particularly aggravated by the impact of sewage spillage, deposition of urban fertilizers affecting TSS, alkalinity and EC values, as well as COD and BOD. The values of the soluble forms of nitrogen and phosphate indicate that the impact of pollution during the course of the river is determinant in the water pollution of this river.
