Physico - Chemical Determination of Water Quality and Pollution Status of Tapti River at Multai, District - Betul (M. P.)
Abstract: In the present paper, an attempt has been made to study the water quality parameters and pollution status of Tapti River at Multai, District - Betul (M. P.). For this study, the water samples were collected from four preselected sampling stations during the month of Jul.2021 to Sep.2021 and important physico - chemical parameters such as Temperature, pH, Turbidity, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total Hardness (TH), Total Alkalinity (TA), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Chloride, Nitrate and Dissolved Oxygen (DO) were analysed. The results showed that, the variation in physico - chemical parameters was within the permissible limit suggested by Indian standards (IS: 10500) for drinking water quality. The physico - chemical parameters of water samples were determined as per standard methods of APHA (1998). The results of the present study showed that, during study period the Tapti River water quality was suitable and safe for domestic and irrigation purposes and may be used after some proper treatment and more efficient management is also required to conserve the river water quality.
