In this project, 6 samples of waste water were collected in 3 different apartments. The apartments are Ruby Grand, Ruby Regency and Green Paradise. The 2 samples of the waste water are the kitchen waste water and washing clothes waste water. Physical, chemical and biological parameters are tested in environmental laboratory. The chemical parameters were tested using titrimetric method. It is found that all samples were safe against pH, Alkalinity, Flouride, Chloride, Iron, Phosphate, and Turbidity which are within the permissible limits of IS3306 (1974).
