What is Pollution?What is Pollution?A pollutant is any substance or

Two types of water pollution:1. Point Source 2. Non-Point Source

Water Pollution SourcesWater Pollution SourcesPoint Source- you know the one source of pollution; it is identified; easier to detect and control
Non-point Source- comes from many sources that can not be easily identified; harder to control

Non-Point Source Non-Point Source examples:examples:RUNOFF!!!Water comes from across a large,
more diffuse area of landFrom…farms, lawns, parking lots,
streets, construction sites, acid rain from air pollution, etc.

Water TreatmentWater TreatmentSewage Treatment Plants
◦Process raw waste & get water ready to enter back into rivers
◦1.) Sludge separated, chlorine used to kill harmful bacteria
◦2.) Oxygen & sludge-eating bacteria used
Septic Systems◦Small wastewater system used by home
or business in rural area◦Sludge consumed by bacteria◦Cleaner water exits & spreads into ground

Water TreatmentWater TreatmentDrinking Water Treatment Plants:1. Water piped in from river or lake2. Flows through mixers, clumping agents
& chemical disinfectants added3. Clarifying pool separates large particles4. Filters separate tiny particles of dust &
dirt5. Chlorine used to kill bacteria6. Clean water goes to water storage tank
