Study of Electric Conductivity of Urban Stream Water Polluted with Municipal Effluents

Abstract:

Specific electric conductivity of water samples in a polluted urban stream was compared with other water quality parameters such as concentration of inorganic carbon, total organic carbon, and total nitrogen. Increasing of water conductivity 1.3...10 times was observed downstream canalization outlets discharging drainage waters together with residential waste waters from inhabited district of city. In some periods water conductivity showed good correlation with pollutants concentration such as TN and IC (with correlation coefficients 0.54...0.96). The received data show that electric conductivity can be used for revealing waste waters pollution in fresh surface waters.
