The use of water for industrial purposes is of foremost importance.
It is used as a coolant and industrial activities dealing with
power generation, steel and iron, paper and pulp and oil require
very large amounts of water. The industry, therefore, resorts to
large scale abstraction of water from natural water bodies. This
water is often treated with chemicals to combat operational
problems like biofouling and corrosion. Such withdrawal and
subsequent discharge of large amounts of water have the potential
to impart significant impact on the recipient water body. The
organisms drawn along with the cooling water, as well as those
residing at the discharge zone, are subjected to a combination of
mechanical, thermal and chemical stress on a continuous basis.
