Assessment of Surface Water Quality Parameters of Panchganga River
This article presents physico-chemical parameters of Panchganga River, Maharashtra, India. The river receives varieties of domestic, industrial and agricultural wastes located around the river. The samples are collected from seven different locations P1 to P7 along Panchganga River. Parameters such as pH, turbidity, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), acidity, alkalinity, chlorides, total hardness, calcium sodium and potassium were determined. Dissolved oxygen (DO) deficit assessed using Streeter-Phelps equation from March to May 2019 on monthly basis. Results showed turbidity was out of desirable limit at all sampling locations. Most of parameters showed increase in value as river flows downstream. Calcium and alkalinity showed higher values than desirable limit as per IS 10500-2012 at last four sampling points. From results, it is concluded that water quality is getting polluted moderately as river flows from Kolhapur to Ichalkaranji. And there is decrease in DO content of water as river flows downstream; critical DO ranging between 2.66 and 4.14 mg/L is observed at distance of 3396–4475 m from discharge point. Finally, the attempt has been made to study the water quality index (WQI) of the river flow and the results showed that variation in quality of water from the upstream to the downstream.
