The chapters discuss heavy metals, metalloids, pesticides, explosives, toxic chemicals, dyes, plastics, e-wastes, fertilizers, detergents, nitrates\/nitrites, phosphates, hydrocarbons, and fecal wastes, along with their sources of action against our environment, their methods of analysis, and finally, their treatments are all presented in detail. \u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur environment is heavily affected due to extreme human activities. Environmental pollution is a major concern worldwide. Within this, water pollution is one of the major challenges that puts the total ecology at risk. Water pollution is alarming everywhere; many governing authorities believe it is also an unavoidable result of human activity. However, the economic cost of water pollution far outweighs the benefits of skimping on its cause. Water pollution is not just merely related to financial cost but related to all living beings. Toxic waste is getting into the water bodies in various regions, causing many illnesses in humans and poisoning other living things. The destruction of any single component of our ecosystem can have a devastating effect on our biodiversity. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the causes of pollution, their nature and mechanism, and, at the same time, study the remedies.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe major causes of water pollution are industrial waste, sewage, plastics, oil leakage, biological organisms, toxic chemicals and radioactive waste, and so on. A tremendous amount of research work is going on around the world to understand the causes, their mechanism, and solutions. Many new works are published every day, therefore it’s important to gather some of the most relevant findings in one place. This will serve as a link between collected knowledge and current advancements, while also facilitating future thinking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Introduction to Water Pollution 1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHira Munir, Areeba Kashaf, Mahnoor Masood, Rabia Sajid, Hira Amjad, Tahreem Shehzadi and Jawayria Najeeb\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1 Pollution 2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2 What is Water Pollution? 2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.3 Prevalence of Water Pollution 4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.4 Categories of Water Pollution 4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.5 Water Pollutants 7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.6 Kinds of Water Pollution 11\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.7 Determination of Water Quality Parameters 13\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.8 Sources of Water Pollution 15\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.9 Effects of Water Pollution on Humans and Animals 17\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.10 Prevention of Water Pollution 19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.11 Control and Prevention of Water Pollution by Biotechnology 22\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.12 Conclusion 23\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Impact of Water Pollution \u0026amp; Perspective Techniques to Mitigate It: An Overview 29\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAmbika Sudan, Arpita Ghosh, Mehak Verma and Pushpachaudhary Tomar\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1 Introduction 30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.2 Causes of Water Pollution 33\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.3 Effects of Water Pollution on Plant Growth 35\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4 Techniques of Treating Water Pollution 37\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.5 Removal of Pollutants Through Different Nanomaterial 48\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.6 Discussion and Conclusion 56\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 Pollution of Ground and Surface Waters with Agrochemicals 65\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAloo B.
