Water Turbidity - Dangers of Cloudy River and Drinking Water (Video)
Published on by Karl-Uwe Schmitz, President at Aqua Equip Technologies LLC (AET LLC) in Technology
Water turbidity is an important measuring unit to determine water quality and describes the degree of water cloudiness.
Turbidity is caused by a huge number of small particles that are suspended in water and invisible to the human eye. While bigger particles are settling down rapidly, small particles – also known as colloids – are settling down very slowly or not at all.
Turbidity in rivers or lakes is often caused by human activities like construction, mining and agriculture. Storm water runoff after a rainfall can wash up sediments from urbanized areas, industries and farmland.
