Abstract:
Solar disinfection (SODIS) is simple, inexpensive and environmentally sustainable method for contaminated water disinfection. Few attempts indicate the possible disinfection of grey water by using sunlight with low turbidity. The present study envisaged to study the effect of SODIS on the survival of Escherichia coli, Feacal Coliform and Total Coliform in grey water. A simple pretreatment filter was provided to bring the turbidity to desired turbidity level. Batch study on SODIS was conducted for two important parameters, varying flowrate and angle of incidence. The varying flowrate and angle enhance temperature of water and increase the rate of disinfection. Results of the present investigation indicate that SODIS is an effective method for grey disinfection.
