    Aarhat Multidisciplinary International Education Research Journal (AMIERJ) ( UGC Approved Journal No 48178, 48818 ) ISSN 2278-5655 WETLANDS & ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY: A CASE STUDY Mr. Sunil Kumar Singh A, Assistant Professor, Department of Geography, School of Earth Sciences, Central University of Karnataka. Abstract Wetlands are ecosystems or habitats for specific plants and animals that are saturated with water. The presence or absence of water determines their formation, processes and characteristics. Wetlands are of great importance to man and nature as it purifies water, reduces flood, stores water, prevents soil erosion, supports varied biodiversities etc. Starting about thousands of years in urban areas of the world and typically a few hundred years ago in most other coastal areas, humanity has profoundly impacted, degraded or destroyed many coastal wetlands worldwide by direct physical degradation and pollution. Ironically, reduced coastal wetland increases threat to human safety at the same time, shoreline development exposes populations to coastal hazards such as tsunamis, erosion, flooding, storm waves and surges. This paper tries to evaluate the importance of Wetlands and the present scenario of wetlands and the steps taken by the world community to protect and preserve it. This paper illustrates the present scenario of wetlands by The Case study of Pallikaranai Wetlands of Chennai which presents the best example of the dismal state of wetlands in-spite of numerous efforts taken by academicians, environmentalists and the local community to protect it. Aim 1. To bring out the importance of Wetlands and the need to preserve and protect it. 2. Illustrate the present scenario of Wetlands based on a case study of “Pallikaranai Wetlands Ecosystems in Chennai” and the present scenario of Wetlands around the world.

  • Phyto-Remediation of Urban Lakes in and Around Chennai
    ISSN: 0974-2115 www.jchps.com Journal of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences Phyto-remediation of urban lakes in and around Chennai G.Priyanga, B.Abhirami, N.R.Gowri* Meenakshi Sundararajan Engineering College, Chennai, India *Corresponding Author: E.Mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Phyto-remediation is an environmental friendly technique which uses plants to improve the condition of the contaminated ecology by absorbing the contaminants. In this research, we have used Water Hyacinth to remediate the waters of Ambattur, Retteri and Korattur. The removal of Lead (Pb), Copper (Cu), Cadmium (Cd) and Iron (Fe) is examined through a model system. These heavy metals were chosen due to their repercussions under high concentration. Batch treatment method is adopted and assessed for 4 weeks. The parameters are tested using Atomic absorption spectroscopy equipment and the results are compared. The results obtained show that water hyacinth is efficient enough in removing almost 95% of harmful heavy metals from urban lake sample. Key words: Green techniques, Phyto-remediation, Water, Plants, Urban lakes, Pollution INTRODUCTION Water is one of the most important constituents needed by living organisms for their day-to-day survival. Even though water is present abundantly on the earth, only 2.5% of it is available to us as freshwater. One of the most important sources of freshwater is lakes which are getting highly contaminated due to increasing urbanization, rapid industrialization and intensification of pesticides in agricultural activities using pesticides. The pollutants are commonly removed through chemical precipitation, reverse osmosis and solvent extraction. These techniques have disadvantages such as incomplete metal removal, high reagent and energy requirements, generation of toxic sludge or other waste products that again require further treatment if required necessary.
