Abstract : Wastewater discharge plays a vital role in environmental management and various industries. Water pollution control and tracking are critical for conserving water resources and maintaining adherence to environmental standards. Therefore, the present analysis examines the impact of pollutant discharge concentration considering the non-Newtonian nanoliquids over a permeable Riga surface with thermal radiation. The analysis is made using two distinct kinds of non-Newtonian nanoliquids: second-grade and Walter’s liquid B. The governing equations are made using the applications of boundary layer techniques. Utilizing the suitable similarity variable reduces the formulated governing equations into an ordinary differential set of equations. The solutions will be obtained using an efficient numerical technique and the significance of various dimensionless constraints on their individual profiles will be presented using graphical illustrations. A comparative analysis is reported for second-grade and Walter’s liquid B fluids. The results show that the porous factor declines the velocity profile for both fluids. Radiation and external pollutant source variation constraints will improve thermal and concentration profiles. The rate of thermal distribution improved with the rise in radiation and solid volume factors. Further, essential engineering factors are analyzed. The outcomes of the present study will help in making decisions and putting efficient plans in place to reduce pollution and safeguard the environment.
