Assessment of water quality characteristics during base and storm flow events on Sungai Langat Basin
Rapid urbanization along the Sungai Langat plays an important role in the increase of point source (PS) and non-point source (NPS) pollutions. The water quality statistical analysis during the base and storm flow events outputs enables to identify the PS and NPS pollution impairing the river. Sungai...

Rapid urbanization along the Sungai Langat plays an important role in the increase of point source (PS) and non-point source (NPS) pollutions. The water quality statistical analysis during the base and storm flow events outputs enables to identify the PS and NPS pollution impairing the river. Sungai Langat basin is deteriorated due to NPS pollution of BOD, COD, TSS, NH3-N, NO3 and E.Coli from year 2004-2008. The utmost and less most water constituents polluting Sungai Langat basin were ranked using the violation analysis during base and storm flow events. The overall rank from the most to less impacting pollutants impairing Sungai Langat basin are E.Coli (NPS)> E.Coli(PS)> TSS(NPS)> COD(NPS)> NH3-N(NPS)> BOD(NPS)> COD(PS)> TSS(PS)> NH3-N(PS)> BOD(PS). The longitudinal profile analysis (year 2008), show the BOD, COD, TSS, NH3-N, NO3 and E.Coli have similarity where the all of the studied water quality concentrations have increased at DOE station of 1L07 to 1L05 segment of river due to sewage.
