It causes a condition, which is hazardous or potentially hazardous to public health safety, welfare, animals, birds, wild life, aquatic life or plants (2) One can classify environmental pollution into a three major abiotic

compartments air, water and soil, or sediments.

Surface water constitutes SO% of drinking water consumption, this later can be easily contaminated both by industrial discharge (point sources) and run off from fields (non point sources) (3) •

Water is considered as one of the necessary molecular reactants in biological synthesis and metabolism. It distributes nutrients and other essential chemicals throughout the organism <•> .
