Restoration Techniques

Abstract Research conducted on urban lakes in Poland has proven the degradation of the quality and utility of their waters. This is caused by the contamination of these lakes with sewage and wastewater from adjacent towns, urban run-off and excessive recreation. The most effective external source controls are rarely implemented due to high costs. However, in-lake activities are being conducted with application of different techniques. The removal of nutrient-rich hypolimnetic water by pipeline was the first restoration experiment designed and performed in Kortowskie Lake by Prof. Olszewski in the mid-sixties. It proved to be effective in retarding the process of lake degradation. Recently, aeration devices such as Ecoflox, Miniflox and Microflox have been installed in several urban lakes in order to improve its water quality. New devices, such as bio-hydro structures designed in Poland and installed in several water bodies, have given promising effects in water quality improvement. The long range assessment of restoration techniques and monitoring of lake water quality is conducted and supervised by the Institute of Environmental Protection.

In Ghaziabad district of Uttar Pradesh, groundwater is one of the substantial resources that need great concern as it is consumed by all the sectors of domestic, irrigation and industrial purposes. The present study examined the groundwater quality of the district on the basis of land use types. A total number of 6 sites were identified in the district from residential, industrial and agricultural areas during pre-monsoon (May 2017) season. It shows that, even the source is not protected; water is not contaminated all the time with faecal pathogens at source. Mostly, water has become contaminated at household because of the poor hygiene practice. The faecal pathogens pathway for water contamination is highly susceptible. Water treatment system is necessary to provide potable water for the community. Together with the water quality improvement, personal hygiene enhancement is also mandatory.  The community of Chotidanda is not aware of the links between hand hygiene and water quality. Even though people do not take any action to improve the water quality in household level they are positive about protecting the water source and for water quality improvement system in community level.
