Microbial treatment of tube wells water for improved water quality

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of using microbe treatment (MT) in improving the water quality in tube wells. MT is a biological treatment solution produced by fermentation process using banana peel, milk, rice water, rice bran and red soil. Microbe solutions (MS1 and...
