Water covers 75% of the surface of our globe, with 2.5% of it being freshwater and 97.5% salt water. Water is used by humans for a variety of activities, including showering, washing clothes, and agriculture. Drinking water contaminated with microbial organisms contributes heavily to the global burden of disease in the form of gastrointestinal illness, neurological disorders, etc. According to WHO, 80% of all diseases in the developing world are water-related 

Contamination is one of the primary causes of water pollution, which not only has an adverse effect on health but also on the ecosystem. The biological functions of plants and animals can be killed, damaged, or interfered with by pollution such as oil spills, radioactive leaks, waste, chemical leaks, and many more types.
