Environmental pollution: a case study of waste water parameters from Ibrahim Adamu Lake, Jigawa, Nigeria

The effects of environmental pollution in relation to waste water parameters from Ibrahim Adamu Lake were examined for a period of 12 Months from October, 2003 - September, 2004. The physico-chemical parameters of pH, Temperature, Dissolved oxygen, Alkalinity, Nitrate, and Phosphate were examined using standard methods (APHA, 1992). It was found that all the evaluated parameters were below the Federal Environmental Planning and Protection Agency (FEPA, 1990) and World Health Organization (WHO,1999) standards.
