B. M. Rajurkar ^[3] | L. P. Dalal ^[3]

Abstract: The present work is a part of survey conducted to study the physico-chemical characteristics of fresh water of Vena River in Hinganghat area of Wardha District (Maharashtra State). Four study sites i. e. SW1, SW2, SW3 and SW4 were selected for present study. The physico-chemical characterstics like, temperature, pH, alkalinity, Total hardness (Calcium, Magnesium), Phosphates, Nitrates, Dissolved oxygen (DO), Free carbon dioxide and Total dissolved salts (TDS. ) were studied. The tenure of study was June 2011 to May 2013. Seasonal fluctuations in physico-chemical parameters were observed and report findings shows some variations due to nearby industries and water discharge from Rama Dam in the month of June.
