  Comparative study on defluoridation by adsorption using rice husk ash, tamarind seed powder and activated

  By Praveen Jyoti, Ashwini M. Arali

  Abstract: In the present study, the ability and suitability of low cost adsorbents such as rice husk ash (RHA), tamarind seed powder (TSP) to adsorb fluoride ions was investigated in jar test apparatus and results were compared with that of commercially available activated charcoal powder (ACP). The major parameters such as pH, concentration of F- ions, stirring rate, contact time and different adsorbent dosages were studied and optimized. The maximum removal …

  Quality of Surface and Ground Water Around Machenahalli Indutrial Estate Between Bhadravathi and Shimoga Cities, Karnataka, India

  By Dr. K. Lokesh, Ashwini M. Arali, Praveen Jyoti

  Abstract: This study is done to analyse the physic-chemical properties of surface and ground water around Machenahalli industrial area. About seven surface water and nine ground water samples were collected and analysed for physico-chemical parameters like pH, EC (Electrical conductivity), Ca, TH, Mg, Na, K2O, SO4, CO3, HCO3 Cl and TDS (Total dissolve solid). And these results were compared with the drinking water standards of ISI (2003) and WHO (2004).For the …
