Water Quality Management
‘The strategies and measures to be taken towards an effective
‘management of water resources, pollution control and
prevention of environmental degradation:
1. Legislation
2. Prevention
3. Water Pollution Sources and Control
4. Non-Point Pollution and its Control
5, Erosion and Sediment Control
6. River quality monitoring1. Legislation
+ Restitions on plltion finland waters [Section 25, BQA 1974]
+ Prohibition of escharge of ol into Malysian waters [Section 27, BQA 1974]
Prohibition of aacharge of wate into Malaysian waters [Setin 29, EQA 1974]
+ CONTROL OF WATER POLLUTION FROM AGRO-BASED INDUSTRY

+ Parameters monitored: DO, NH4, NH3, Conductivity, Turbidity, Salinity,
PH, Temperature, Time,
+ Water quality levels exceeding the ambient standard for specific
sd real-time to DOE

+ Immediate inspection will be conducted at suspected sites.

4. Pre-treatment-Sereening and grit removal take out relatively large
floating and suspended debris andthe sand and grit that settles very
rapidly which may damage equipment.
2. Primary Treatment: Settling or claifcation removes the prtiles
that wil sett out by savy alone within afew hours
3. Secondary Treatment- Typically achieved by using biological
‘process to breakdown the degradable organie pollutants
4. Tertiary Treatment: Disinfection, Membrane filtration, Carbon
adsorption, Nutrient removal (* and N)
