INTRODUCTION
● Industrial Effluent: Affects aquatic ecosystem.
● Quality assurance and Quality control:
Regulations for the industries - Prohibits the
discharge of pollutants beyond a certain
threshold.
● Manual testing and investigation of industrial
effluent: Not fully reliable.
● Intelligent analysis of industrial effluent:
Accomplished through suitable ML algorithm.
Figure 1. Industrial effluent dumped into river bodies [1]
AIM
● Determine the level of various pollutants in
industrial effluent.
● Feeding the collected information to a
suitable ML algorithm.
● Training the ML algorithm to give predicted
outputs.

METHOD
Industrial
Effluent
Sensors embedded on a
microcontroller
Collected data: Level of contaminants
Collected data is analysed
using ML algorithm to obtain
predicted data
Predicted data
Predicted data is stored
for use
Predicted data is utilised
by the concerned
authorities

CONCLUSION
● The traditional method fails to predict sudden
changes in the level of contaminants in
industrial effluents.
● The ML algorithm will have stronger ability to
predict the true value.
● The concerned authorities will be informed
well in advance and will accordingly act on
not letting the levels of contaminants cross
the threshold value.
