Figure 12.5 Water BudgetATMOSPHERE
Contains 12,600 km3 of water
Evaporation
271 km3/dayAbout 1/4 of total globalprecipitation falls on land
Precipitation
989 km3/day
Most water flux occurs between theoceans and the atmosphere
888 km3/day
Precipitation
OCEANSContain 1,230,000,000 km3 of water
170 km3/dayMost of the rain that falls on land
evaporates back to the atmospherefrom land surfaces and plant leaves
(evapotranspiration).
LANDStreams, lakes, andgroundwater contain
4,124,200 km3of water

Disease organisms
• Typhoid-bacteria• Dysentary-bacteria or amoeba• Schistosomiasis - worm• Polio-virus• Cholera-bacteria
WATER POLLUTION
• POLLUTANTS• DISEASE ORGANISMS• SEWAGE TREATMENT• OXYGEN SAG CURVE• EUTROPHICATION
Secondary treatments1. ACTIVATED SLUDGE 2. TRICKLING FILTER
Sewage organisms

BOD-BIOCHEMICAL OXYGEN DEMAND
• EXPRESSED IN mgO2 per liter of H2O• Amount of oxygen needed to gobble up
organic chemical• Sewage entering a sewage plants has a BOD of
295mgO2/l-influent• Sewage leaving a sewage plant should have a BOD of 5mgO2/liter-effluent
SEWAGE TREATMENT
• PRIMARY TREATMENT-SETTLING OUT HEAVY ITEMS
• SECONDARY TREATMENT• a. activated sludge• b. trickling filter• c. oxidation ponds

eutrophication

eutrophication
• Oligotrophic-few nutrients• Mesotrophic-moderate amount of nutrients• Eutrophic-many nutrients
