Comparsion of some Chemical Parameters of Urban and Industrial Water Discharges Onto the River Lumbardh of Prizren

Abstract

Abstract: In this paper is described the concept of the monitoring system for water condition and physical - chemical parameters of the water quality. The biggest problem in environmental protection, is the quality of surface water. Complex approach includes physical and chemical analyzes of water of the river Lumbardhi, and those of discharge urban and industrial wastewater. Results from the analysis of the study will be used to manage eco - status in order to prevent negative trends and create a desirable balance of so important ecosystem like the system consisting of Lumbardhi river, yet with preserved biodiversity. The purpose of this paper is to compare the dynamics of river pollution Lumbardhi from urban and industrial discharge water during the same time intervals but different years. As a point of monitoring is selected the source of Lumbardhi L1 Prevall, then there is the point monitoring industrial area L2 and L3 point river outfall that has been marked with L3 Vlashnje. It was executed a monitoring of surface water through their physical - chemical analysis in two cycles: April-May 2012 and April-May 2015 of these parameters. Suspensive dissolved materials, biochemical oxygen consumption, chemical oxygen expenditure and total organic carbon in the source of Lumbardhi river, in the urban area and in the river outfall of Lumbardhi. Through this monitoring, in this paper is made comparison of these above parameters which shows that the results obtained from tests which have been made in Hydro Meteorological Institute in Pristina resulted that there is a considerable pollution of the river Lumbardhi from these pollutants and according to our opinion this comes as a result of not sustainable economic-ecologic development, social-ecologic, eco education and lack of surface treatment and urban sewage, industrial. On the other hand, based on the ecological situation and physic - chemical characteristics of Lumbardhi River during time intervals, it will serve as the starting point for integrated management plans and, if necessary, for programs, measures and environmental protection activities.
