Periodical changes in physico-chemical properties and cyanophycean bloom in a pond ofAgra city during the year 2005 and 2006 were studied. It was recorded that the pond water was polluted throughout the study period and this was closely associated with Cyanobacterial bloom. During summer (March to June), the pond water was highly polluted, as it was rich in various nutrients and phosphates in p...

As one of several types of pollutants in water, chlorinated compounds have been routinely subjected to sonochemical analysis to check the environmental applications of this technology. In this review, an extensive study of the influence of the initial concentration, ultrasonic intensity and frequency on the kinetics, degradation efficiency and mechanism has been analyzed. The sonochemical degra...

The term bioremediation describes biological machinery of recycling wastes to make them harmless and useful to some extent. Bioremediation is the most proficient tool to manage the polluted environment and recover contaminated river water.  Bioremediation is very much involved in the degradation, eradication, restriction, or reclamation varied chemical and physical hazardous substances from the...
