Can anyone list out the advantage and disadvantages of water pollution remediation technique/ method in a broad and detailed approach??
For example
UV treatment / Electrochemical/ biological process/ bioremediation
Membrane separation/ Advanced oxidation process/ coagulation or flocculation...
Adsorption by biochar/activated carbon/CNT/ Graphene etc.
Note: Need it for a write up. Thank You
Akito I Sema There are many methods of water purifcaiton depends on the technology selection and water quality to be tested before and after which is very important however few of the technologies which we can list are as follows:
Coagulation or also known as Floculation
Sedimentation is also one of the technology which is used for filtering water
pH Correction is mostly used by various low cost technologies
Common filternation methods based on the tds/cod/bod to be adjusted
Sludge drying is also one of the common method
1) CAPTURE
Capture then transport to the drinking water treatment plant.
2) SCREENING
Passage through grids to stop floating bodies and large waste.
3) SCREENING
Finer filtering is intended to stop smaller waste, sand, plankton, etc.
4) FLOCCULATION – DECANTATION
Pouring of a coagulant product to group the impurities into small packets (flocs) and eliminate 90% of suspended solids.
5) FILTRATION
Filtering of suspended particles that are invisible but still present, carried out on conventional materials (sand) or adsorbents (granular or powdered activated carbon).
Some facilities use membranes capable of filtering minute particles (microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration).
6) DISINFECTION – OZONATION
Neutralization of viruses and pathogenic bacteria then injection of ozone (gas). Sometimes ultraviolet rays are used.
7) SPECIFIC TREATMENT
Adsorption on activated carbon. Refining treatment to eliminate organic matter and improve the organoleptic qualities of the water (flavour, smell, clarity).
8) CHLORINATION
Addition of a tiny amount of chlorine to preserve the quality of the water as it travels through the pipes to reach the taps.
9) STORAGE
Once made drinkable, the water is sent to reservoirs where it is stored before being routed through a network of underground pipes to homes.

In remote villages construction of treatment wetlands is a big advantage. No extra costs are needed. Of course, permanent control over the quality of the treated water is needed.
Thank you Bachir Achour Rovshan K Abbasov Srinivas Kasulla
i would be glad if you guys can list of the advantages and disadvantages (soome of them )
would be very grateful.. Thank you once again

Main advantage of the wetland construction is in economic efficiency. Making wetland you may introduce local plants that will not be costly. Also, the wetland you make may provide a shelter for various species, including birds.
The disadvantage includes requirement of big areas, which may be not available in every residential area.
Dear Akito I Sema
I would like to suggest you the following books to perceive a wide array of domestic and wastewater treatment methods:
Dear Akito I Sema
There are several water treatment methods and each of them have pros and cons. Based on the contaminations in the influent and water quality requirements in the effluent, a suitable treatment method need to be selected. In addition, the treatment efficiency, cost of construction and operation and maintenance also need to be considered. Please go through the attached literature for the advantages and disadvantages of different methods of ammonium removal from water.

Good luck!!
Advantages of water treatment
1. Provide healthy life
2. Increase life span
3. Checkmate the presence of pathogens
4. To ascertain the presence of e-coli
5 remove impurities and dirt
Disadvantages
1. Promote spread of waterborne diseases
2.Discomfort
3.causes Dysentery and diarrhoea
4 possible death
5. Costly
I will list some:
1. Coagulation
metal base (PACl, ACH, FeCl3)
- introduce heavy metals in the water
- price is cheaper and easier to produce compared to any new bio coagulation product
2. Disinfection
Chlorine
- stay longer in water - good for long pipe distribution
- may produce harmful by-products like THMs
- widely use
- easy to operate - means initial start-up cost is lower compared to ozonation system
