The Brunei Bay as an Effluent Receiving Waterbody: Observations during the Start-up Period of a Kraft Pulp and Paper Mill

The Brunei Bay as an Effluent Receiving Waterbody: Observations during the Start-up Period of a Kraft Pulp and Paper Mill

The water quality of Brunei Bay, Malaysia, subsequent to receiving iffluent from a pulp and paper mill, was monitored. Conventional water quality parameters such as dissolved oxygen, suspended solids, and biochemical oxygen demand were used as indicators to compare the present status of the bay wa...
