Nitrate contamination of surface water through different human activities is an alarming issue for human sound health survivorship. So, we have attempted to estimate and remove nitrate contamination levels in water samples, collected from the Rushikulya River in Odisha, India. A detailed study is done on the impact of nitrate contamination in various aspects and their removal is absorbed through an experimental composite adsorbent that is prepared taking rice husk dust and Bagasse waste from corn (Argo-based waste product) with different proportions of each. The nitrate absorbance was analyzed with the spectrophotometric method. The efficiency of adsorbents is identified through SEM and found that with an increase in the alkaline state of water sample up to 13 and composite proportion ratio with 20% rice husk and 80% bagasse waste from corn, removes nitrate up to 95% from contaminated water sample. A maximum of 98.0% of nitrate was removed from the water at a pH of 11. Also, by maintaining the COD range of 250 mgL-1, the nitrate could be removed up to 94%. Out of all the combinations, the matrix composite of Type- 9 (CM - 9), made with the combination of RH and BW in Ratio 1:9, is found to have with good compressive strength of 0.44 MPa, tensile strength of 1.003 MPa and highest density of 279.88 kg m-3. These matrices are applied for the treatment of contaminated river water samples to remove nitrate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
