Sruthi Saladula, Meena Vangalapati

Abstract :

The rise of industrialization has rapidly leaded to destruction of natural sources, which directly or indirectly affects the human and animal life. The releases of toxic effluents from these industries ultimately end up polluting the air, soil and the water surrounding the region. Toxic compounds include various heavy metals and elements like fluorides, phenols, nitrates, chlorides, calcium, magnesium salts, etc. These compounds cause a great loss to both flora and fauna. The whole life cycle is disturbed due to these pollutants. This paper explains the importance of treating nitrates and the simple and economical method of treating nitrates with immobilization of tamarind seeds and explains the conversion of nitrates by modeling an equation and fitting it into the best curve.
