Effects of Abattoir Waste Discharge on Trans Amadi Creek River State.

Water resources pollution by effluents from abattoirs is of public health concern because bodies of water are used for sources of drinking water or recreational activities and discharge of waste into it can lead to destruction of primary biota. This study presents the effect of abattoir waste on the quality of the Trans-Amadi Creek Port Harcourt Rivers State. Physico-chemical parameters were assessed to evaluate the effect of the abattoir discharge in the Creek.
