Effect of Industrial Effluent on Seed Germination of Solanum melongena.

Sajid Ali, Masood Alam

Abstract :

 Industries consume large amount of water and generates contaminated effluent which affect the normal quality of the environment.  The objective of present study was to examine the effect of industrial effluent with different concentrations on the seed germination of Solanum melongena. The results show that the Solanum melongena has higher tolerance capacity against the effluent because seed germination percentage is highest at 50% concentration of the effluent and seed germination reduces when the concentration of the effluent increases more than 50% which collected from Okhla Industrial Area phase–1, New Delhi–110025. The chemical composition of effluents contains higher concentration of pollutants.

The study suggested that the effluent concentration should be less and then the effluents may be used for agriculture or other purposes.
