Abstract:

Bangladesh is known as a land of rivers and its own resources of water. But unfortunately, it faces a big challenge to provide safe drinking water. Most of the population collect their drinking water from their own area water supply which is a source of underground water. In the area of Kushtia, 90% of population collect water from Kushtia Municipal water supply. Kushtia Municipal has a total of 26 pump stations to supply the water to the population and from each pump station, they cover almost 2000 households. But unfortunately, they don’t have a specific filtration system for Arsenic pollution. Latest estimates suggest 43,000 people in Bangladesh die each year from arsenic-related diseases.Our case study is focused on that Arsenic problem in the area named Kushtia, ward Pourasava, Bangladesh. Therefore, the research focused on analyzing samples and the technology collected from the Pourosava water pump station. From the result obtained and based on the technology, we designed a water treatment unit to better the technology and purify the water from Arsenic to a certain level.
