Water Pollution Act mainly utilizes water discharge permit regulation to passively regulate water pollution sources. However, active inspections shall be acted upon those who constantly being petitioned against and control the illegal discharging frequencies to be more efficient in the improvement of water quality. Traditionally, water pollution inspections were carried out by having inspectors raiding the industrial units. The illegal discharging frequencies and water characteristics are hard to monitor by simply having the inspectors on site. In addition, the fleeting nature of water pollution cases and the topography, manpower and the time restrictions result in the difficulty of evident collection in a timing fashion. Thus, the abovementioned permit regulation method would not effectively achieve the water quality improvement. This thesis focuses on the four industries frequently being petitioned, such as food manufacturing, laundry, printing and dyeing and metal surface treatment industries. Scientific monitoring apparatuses were utilized here in lieu of traditional inspection and the efficiency analysis was completed. The pollution range was first detected and analyzed by unman aerial vehicles (UAV) ; followed by 24-hour water quality monitors, which were used to control the illegal discharging frequencies, timings and water characteristics. Underground tubing detection equipment, together with zoom tubing assessment system, was utilized for evident collection. Studies show that by monitoring the discharges outside the factories enhanced the investigation efficiency of the inspectors. Pollution sources were investigated the moment the monitors pick up any abnormal signals; in most cases, the pollution evident were found. The pros and cons and the cost-effectiveness by using the scientific apparatus were analyzed. The study shows that not only the cost was reduced by using the apparatus, but the evident collection time was greatly reduced. Once abnormal signals were picked up, unannounced inspections will follow to facilitate the investigation procedures. In addition, proper punishment for the violators and on-site consultation will also reduce the pollution occurrences
