Water quality: a comprehensive review of element in water quality improvement

Abstract

The paper presents a comprehensive review of elements in water quality improvements especially on the technology to be used. The current technology applied in the activity of water quality is one of the most important information for the relevant agencies of water. Water resources in Malaysia come in the forms of rivers, lakes, ponds and groundwater. Lakes and ponds are important water resources naturally or constructed in Malaysia. Rapid pace of the development surrounding many of the water catchment area had significant effects on the quality of water bodies. Management of water resources is becoming increasingly comprehensive demanded and complicated due to large concentrations of population, commercial activities and industries around the cities and towns, increasing water consumption, increasing water pollution, increasing land use conflicts and climate changes. Urban storm water pollution can be a large contributor to the water quality problems of many receiving waters, as runoff transports a wide spectrum of pollutants to local receiving waters and their cumulative magnitude is large. The study has reviewed the improvement elements of water quality from two different functions of materials – Titanium (IV) Oxide and Zeolite that was categorized from natural and synthesised
