state two things you think are polluting river Yamuna and write possible solution to control it
Answers
Answer:
Water used from the Yamuna for supply to the city is taken before the Wazirabad barrage. Officials of the Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) claim discharge from industries in Delhi begins after this point.
On Monday, a DJB official pointed to high concentration of pollutants being carried by Drains 8 and 4, which bring potable raw Yamuna water to Delhi from Haryana. Drain 8 is also infamous for running alongside another drain carrying industrial waste and sewage in certain stretches of Sonepat district. In some areas here, sandbags are used to prevent the two drains from mixing.However, on days of heavy rain, both the drains overflow, according to residents in the area and experts from the South Asia Network on Dams, Rivers and People (SANDRP).
The DJB at present does not have any specific technology to treat ammonia. The only solution it adapts is to reduce production at three water treatment plants — Wazirabad, Chandrawal and Okhla — which are largely affected by the pollutant.
The lack of a minimum ecological flow also means accumulation of other pollutants. After water is extracted from the river for treatment in North East Delhi, what flows is mostly untreated sewage and refuse from homes, run off from storm water drains and effluents from unregulated industry.
