ABSTRACT:

A pollutant is nothing but a misplaced resources. It is very true in case of nutrient. Excessive fertilization of natural water is becoming one of the most important causes of water quality-deterioration. Hospital effluent contains Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Ortho Phosphate, Organic Phosphate, Ammonia etc. which stimulated the growth of flora. When these partially treated or untreated hospital effluents find their way into water bodies they increase the amount of nutrients. Now a day the Eutrophication has become a threat of the existence of water bodies.
