 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Industrial Accidental or purposive

Water Pollution
development dumping

Effect:
• Negative impacts on health and well-being of humans, plants and animals.
• Contamination of potable water sources

Solution:
• Use Best management practices (BMP) – to prevent pollution
*pollutants is filtered out
*sources is being controlled
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

• Collect & analyze stormwater runoff from commercial area

• Investigate level of pollution for stormwater – by taking sample of no raining day
• Propose recommendations to reduce water pollution level

SCOPE OF STUDY

• Analyze the quality of stormwater runoff located at Taman Universiti

-BOD test
- Total suspended solid (TSS) test
- pH test
METHODOLOGY
STUDY AREA
- Taman Universiti, Skudai
- Near to Ayamas Stall
- Opposite PETRONAS gas
station

WATER SAMPLING
- In situ method
- Use bottle

• 100 ml water sample prepared

• Calibrated using pH transmitter
to get the pH value
 TOTAL SUSPENDED SOLID (TSS)

TSS = weight of
Weight the filter sample (g) x
paper 1000/volume of
sample (ml) x 10^-3

After 2 hours,
Prepare 20 ml
weight again the

Poured 20ml of Filter paper placed

water sample in TSS in oven for 2 hours

 CONCLUSION

• BOD test – within Standard B

• pH test – within Standard B POLLUTION LEVEL IS NOT HIGH

• TSS test – within standard limit
