Sources of Surface Water Pollution in Lake Radoniq

Session

Energy Efficiency Engineering

Description

This study aimed to assess the status of the water quality of lake Radoniq. To create knowledge about a water environment that can be used for human life and economy and to meet the needs of drinking water, for irrigation of lands for industry and to give management suggestions based on anthropogenic impact and ecological conditions. The evaluation of the anthropogenic impact on this river was done through physico-chemical, microbiological analyzes and the determination of trace metals. Samples were taken from the Lumbardhi Deçan and lake Radoniq in four periods of 2021 and analyzed for pH, EC, Alkalinity, Total Hardness, Dissolved Oxygen, Iron SAA, inorganic forms of N and P, and total suspended solids , etc.

The environmental risk assessment was done by comparing the results achieved with international standards. The methodology during laboratory analysis is based on ISO standards. The results of the research showed a pollution in the Lumbardh river of Deçan as a supplier of the Radoniq lake as a result of anthropogenic and ecological impact as some parameters had values higher than the standard values.

From the results of the water analysis done during 2021 in Lumbardhin i Deçan, we notice an increase in parameters such as: Turbidity, dissolved oxygen, nitrates, phosphates, KMnO4 expenditure. This increase in parameters is expressed especially in the part where it is inhabited by the population and pollutes the water with uncontrolled spills. Significant control of water quality along the river flow and in the lakes is required.
