Plastic flows through Goa Tap Water: Nio

Panaji: People in Goa may swallow micro along with their drinking water, a new study by the National Institute of Oceanography (NIO) and Delhi-based Toxics Group Group links.
Clean Water Study: Dream Pipe? – Goa tap water and find that drinking water supplied to contaminated houses with microplastics, one source that can become a PVC pipe.
“Microplastics may already be in the water, but when the tap water passes through a plastic pipe, it adds more microplastics.
The water transportation system must be examined as a mitigation step to understand our drinking water status,” the main researcher said from Nio, said Mahua Saha.
Microplastics (MP) is a plastic particle which is less than 5mm and has been recognized globally as one of the most critical sea pollutants emerged, because of their persistence, public toxic.
Eleven samples of water collected from beats and water treatment plants throughout the country were analyzed for microplastic contamination in NIO.
A total of 288 MP particles were found in tap water samples, with the highest level of abundance detected in Mapapaa.
“The main source of drinking water in Goa is a river and the presence of microplastics in pre-treatment water shows that water sources or polluted rivers.
This can be mainly caused by plastic waste and dispose of wastewater in the river system,” said Saha.
The Associate Director, Tocial Link, Sinha Satish, said that parliamentarians are usually fiber, fragments, colors, tires, packaging materials that are destroyed quickly and become part of the soil, water body and seafood.
This is a synthetic polymer that is insoluble in water.
“It does not lose its original nature and chemicals only because it is destroyed and swallowing it can be very dangerous for human health,” he said.
The impact of carcinogenic pollutants can also have an impact on marine organisms, especially shrimp.
“Birth defects and reproductive problems are caused by microplastic, in addition to reducing the population of overtime,” Saha said.
They call for direct intervention of city companies and state governments to overcome the practice of waste management and increase filtration plants and water transportation systems.
“For mitigation, we need to bring the state and central governments in the description and work on the source of parliamentarians.
It should not be limited to one country, but it must be extended to other countries too.
This is a preliminary study and needs to be extrapolated.
More comprehensive studies and The extensive collection of samples is needed for analytical procedures, “Saha said.
“Although the rules of plastic waste management have apply in the country, public awareness and participation holds the key to improving plastic waste management and subsequent reduction of microplastic pollution.
Various stakeholders, including industry, government, civil society organizations, need to collaborate to bring change,” said Sinha.
