| Popis: | Wastewatertreatment is fundamental to preserve the environment and to protect publichealth, both in urban and rural areas. Poorly treated wastewater with highlevels of pollutants creates major environmental problems when discharged tosurface water or land. The present study aimed to evaluate performanceefficiency of Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) in Skenderaj, Kosova, to assessthe effluent and its suitability for discharge into river. Influent andeffluent wastewater samples were collected during April 2016 to June 2016.Physico-chemical parameters analysed for evaluation of performance of WWTP weretemperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS),total suspended solids (TSS), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygendemand (COD), PO4-P and N-total. The BOD5, TSS and COD removal efficiency ofWWTP in Skenderaj were 98.47%, 78.66% and 32.64 % respectively. The values oftemperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, TDS, TSS, BOD5, COD, PO4/P andN-total for the final effluent produced from Skenderaj WWTP meet the valuesdetermined by the European Union (EU), World Health Organization (WHO)Standards. |
