Without adequate quantity and quality of fresh water sustainable Assessment of water resource quality of any region is an development will not be possible. The healthy aquatic important aspect of developmental activities of the region, ecosystem is depended on the biological diversity and Physico- because rivers, lakes and manmade reservoirs are used for Chemical characteristics. The physicochemical properties will water supply to domestic, industrial, agricultural and fish also help in the identification of sources of pollution, for culture. Good water quality resources depends on large number conducting further investigations on the eco-biological impacts of physicochemical parameters and the magnitude and source and also for initiating necessary steps for remedial actions in of any pollution load; and to assess that, monitoring of these case of polluted water bodies. In India, many researchers have parameters is essential. Polluted water is the major cause for worked on physicochemical and biological characteristics of the spread of many epidemics and some serious diseases like reservoirs and rivers.

The waste water treatment system components were designed and they consist of water cans, piping system, filtration disinfection and storing system. The project includes upper head water storage tank which is situated at the top and second water tank for storing pure water after filtration process. The filtering media used were fly ash, fabric, baggas, coarse gravel, foundry sand, pebbles which was removed after 3 weeks and washed carefully with distilled water and dried. The waste after passing through filtration bed goes into the disinfection tank and finally stored there. When there is a need of water, this water can be delivered. Key Words – filtration, disinfection, activated charcoal, flyash, fabric. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ I. INTRODUCTION Panchganga river is the most important river in relation to water supply and availability. The main problem is only one that water is Panchganga river is polluted at its extreme level. People dump all the waste like, religious waste, biodegradable waste, funeral waste, industrial waste directly into the river. Determining the water supply quality is mandatory. The main properties which show the purity of water are its physical, chemical and its biological characteristics .this characteristics will help us to determine the need of water treatment for consumption of appropriate water determined by national standards.

    Analysis of Rainfall Data and Soil Permeability

    ANALYSIS OF RAINFALL DATA AND SOIL PERMEABILITY A CASE STUDY OF PANCHGANGA RIVER BASIN Mr Girish S. Khandare1, Prof. Dhananjay S. Patil2 PG Student RIT, Rajaramnagar, Islampur, Maharashtra ( India) Assistant Professor, RIT, Rajaramnagar, Islampur, Maharashtra (India) ABSTRACT In India there are seven major rivers, out of those seven rivers Krishna is one of the major river and Panchganga is the sub-stream of Krishna River. The Panchganga River flows in Kolhapur district which is having 2627.31 km2 of catchment area. In this area there are eight rain gauge stations. Too much of river water gets percolated in those catchment area so there is a need of study and analysis of rainfall and the infiltration rate in the catchment area. With the help of catchment area calculation, rainfall data, and rate of infiltration we can find out the maximum rainfall, runoff and also the rate of infiltration in the catchment area. From the Panchganga River Basin, it is observed that the Dajipur station have a maximum average rainfall (7647.6mm) while the Wadange station have minimum average rainfall (422.8 mm). There are mainly five types of soils. In this study area the black cotton soil is more in Kasari and Tulshi river catchment area so the infiltration rate is less (9.61 E-06 mm/sec) and runoff is more (56.24 inch) in that area. Keywords: Rainfall, Catchment area, Rate of infiltration, GIS, ArcGIS 10.2.2 I. INTRODUCTION Rain is a major component of the water cycle and is responsible for depositing most of the fresh water on the Earth.
