Abstract

This work examined some physicochemical parameters of effluents from a Brewery Industry in Imo state. This company discharged effluents in non-compliance with the Nigerian National Regulations as confirmed from the Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Electrical Conductivity (EC), Nitrogen, and Turbidity results. The heavy metals have concentrations that were within WHO/FEPA limits. These confirmed results posed health risks to several rural communities which rely on the receiving water bodies as their primary source of domestic water. There is need for the intervention of appropriate regulatory agencies to ensure production of high quality treated final effluents. This scenario is typical of most industries in developing nations where enforcement of environmental regulations are deficient. To avoid pollution, regulatory authorities should closely monitor compliance by industries.
尼日利亚伊莫州啤酒厂工业废水的物理化学参数。
本文研究了伊莫州某啤酒厂废水的一些理化参数。从生化需氧量(BOD)、化学需氧量(COD)、电导率(EC)、氮和浊度结果证实,该公司排放的废水不符合尼日利亚国家法规。重金属的浓度在世界卫生组织/联邦环境保护局的限制范围内。这些得到证实的结果对一些依赖接收水体作为主要生活水源的农村社区构成了健康风险。需要适当的管理机构进行干预,以确保生产高质量的经处理的最终废水。这种情况是环境法规执行不力的发展中国家大多数行业的典型情况。为了避免污染,监管当局应密切监测工业的遵守情况。
