Description
Summary:The rapid growth of population and urbanization lead to increasing industrialization and agricultural activities. The revolution in these aspects leading to the contamination of natural sources of water due to human interference activities. Toxic pollutants contaminate the available water sources such as rainwater. Therefore, this leading to the shortage of freshwater supply for bathing, cooking and drinking. In order to fulfil the demand for water supply, this sources of water should undergo light pre-treatment using pressurize water filtration system. The water parameters such as pH, turbidity, total suspended solids, biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand and heavy metal concentration will be measured before treatment to get the information on the pollution level in the water sources. Then, the water parameters will be assessed after the filtration process in order to get the effective configuration of the filtration system in terms of number of cycle in series to treat the polluted water to comply with raw water supply standard in accordance to Ministry of Health Malaysia.
