| Article Name : | | | STUDY OF PARAMETERS AFFECTING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF MORINGA OLEIFERA IN HARDNESS & TURBIDITY REMOVAL | | Author Name : | | | Usaid ur Rehman Farooqui , Augustine Ifelebuegu | | Publisher : | | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | | Article Series No. : | | | GRT-3500 | | Article URL : | |  | Author Profile View PDF In browser | | Abstract : | | | This research involves the study of effects due to changes in various parameters such as pH (range; pH 4-9) and temperature (0ºC-50ºC) on effectiveness of Moringa Oleifera. Turbidity measurement has been considered during research for observing the effectiveness of Moringa Oleifera with the help of 40 NTU, 80 NTU and 160 NTU solutions. Synthetic hard water varied from 300ppm to 900ppm as calcium hardness. Inductively Coupled Plasma Spectrophotometry (ICP-OES OPTIMA 5300 DV) instrument has been used for hardness determination, whereas ELE430-257 turbidity meter used for turbidity measurement. Very negligible effect was observed in the hardness removal efficiency of Moringa Oleifera with the variation of pH and temperature. The turbidity reduction was higher for higher initial turbidity samples and only 52.5% reduction was observed for initial 40 NTU sample. The maximum reduction in turbidity of 75% was found at pH-7 and hence this was observed as the optimum pH. It was also noticed that the efficiency of Moringa Oleifera increases by increasing temperature and maximum turbidity reduction of 67.5% was observed at 50ºC sample whereas only 18.75% reduction was noticed with 5ºC sample. | | Keywords : | | - Enrolment,जलग्रहण क्षेत्र प्रबंधन मिशन,नियोग,
