Other contaminants include acidity, petroleum, detergents, food processing waste, ammonia, fertilizers and garbage. Chemicals and pathogens are also some pollutants that contribute to water pollution. Various physical, chemical and biological tests are used to analyze the water samples to measure the water pollution. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of water pollution.
