Environmental Pollution


As concerns of an environmental pollution are very vast one has to understand for a common man. In broad terms the pollution can be classified in two groups. First Natural Pollution and second man made pollution and both are governing with total environment including land-soil, water and air. In the case of natural pollution which is produced by the action and reaction of nature is 98% recycled by nature and converting into useful end products again for mankind. Here a very simple example is carbon dioxide is produced by man is absorbed by the plants and plant materials and in return gives oxygen which is very important for mankind. Even Sunami in sea can be used as a source of energy or power which can be used by man in future to generate power. Sun produces excessive heat which is used for evaporation of water to produce clouds for rains which is very important for man kind as well as for natural elements. In India, most of the families use to preserve the food materials and can cook their food by means of solar cookers. Sun heat is very important for leaves for their actions and reactions of chlorophyll for plant and also for mankind to work. Even sun heat is useful to accelerate aerobic and anaerobic reactions. A natural rain fall which comes through different layers of environment by absorbing various useful gases for mankind to earth-soil .From earth soil when it percolate by and by it is purified and than finally collected underground  as a reservoir as a purest form of water for mankind . In ground present of water helps to sustain earth-quake and earth magnetic movement up to some extend and mankind withdraws it in emergency. Here in nature aerobic and anaerobic reactions with organic substances are going on which produces and produce manure. Up to some extend earth pressure provides pressure and temperature both which help to increase the rate of bio-mass reactions which is again an useful end product .Present of particulates in nature reduces sun –heat as well as deposition of water vapors on its surface to form clouds for rains which helps to grow various organic substances for mankind in the form of grains for mankind to grow with nature.

Nature is the best friend of mankind which solves the problem of man-produce pollution to recycle and convert it into useful end products for man. But today due to very fast and rapid growth of science and technology man is discharging various pollutants in a large quantity in nature which nature is not able to covert into useful end products. So must also find the various methods to reduce the quantity of pollutant or converting it in different forms which may be easy for nature and at the same time useful for mankind. For example sewer line carrying human excreta has a large dilution i.e. water to flow under the self cleansing property and then mass treatment under aerobic and an aerobic process is very costly and it has to go out through the city. If it treated by oxidation pond then it means various gases and micro-organisms are discharged in environment which has to recycle by nature and if it done under an-aerobic method then more space, money and time required. In my opinion the process of an-aerobic treatment of human excreta through septic tank is better and there may be collection of gases is to be used for energy or for light or for cooking food. Another process which I develop is far better, useful and economical for mankind. Let us dream a cluster of houses having a sizable land which can be used as kitchen garden, have a common large type septic tank and effluent of this septic tank is passed through perforated pipes from one meter below the soil level slope to the total vegetable garden. The affluent water which consist of manure and organic particles will be use for growth of plants and at the same time a part of affluent water will be converted into ground water and gases are used for burning lights or cooking are fire by which if any micro-organisms is present will die out. It will give minimum load to nature.
