Abstract : Water is inevitable and of course the Elixir of life, it finds it way when wake to seep in all common men’s life. Due to modernization and population explosion it gets polluted and need to be treated to find its other way in domestication such as irrigation and others excludes potability. Though many conventional methods are available, methods of biological treatments are quite different and enhances the vitality of Biological substances to utilize the chemical components for their life. Such an attempt is the alternative approach of treating Waste Water with Algae.

Keywords : Potabiity, Poution, Algae.
