Abstract
The city of Thane receives 320 MLD of water from water supply agencies, per day. Only 56 MLD of water is treated while 210 MLD of water go untreated. This water is dumped in Thane creek through 12 nallahs (open drains) in the city. We collected a representative fire sample from wagle Estate nallah and analysed it for purify. We found that indeed this water after purification, can be used safety for purpose such as irrigation.
