Common elements carried in water;
 * Magnesium
 * Calcium
 * Iron
 * Sodium
 * Potassium
 * Sulfur
 * Silicon
 * Nitrogen
 * Phosphorus

Excess amounts of some elements such as nitrogen and phosphorus can stimulate plant and algae growth. Excessive algae growth is called Algal Bloom. Algal Bloom depletes dissolved oxygen levels in the water and result in the death of many organism.
