  • Study on the Quality of Water in Some Streams of Cauvery River
    ISSN: 0973-4945; CODEN ECJHAO E-Journal of Chemistry http://www.e-journals.net Vol. 5, No.2, pp. 377-384, April 2008 Study on the Quality of Water in Some Streams of Cauvery River ABIDA BEGUM and HARIKRISHNA Department of Chemistry, P.E.S School of Engineering, Bangalore- 560 100 Shirdi Sai Engg. College, Bangalore. Visveshwaraya Technological University, Belgaum, [email protected] Received 30 October 2007; Accepted 20 December 2007 Abstract : The quality of water in four streams of Cauvery River in Mandya District, where many small scale sugar and brewery distilleries are located, was analysed. Sampling was carried out from four streams designated as station 1 (upstream of effluent discharge point), station 2 (effluent discharge point) and station 3 (downstream of effluent discharge) station 4 (fresh water stream) to assess the impact of effluent on the water quality. The river water composition is increasingly dominated by Na and Cl in the downstream region of the river, indicating the influence of airborne salts with oceanic affinities. Significant spatial variation was observed in water level, transparency, turbidity, depth, dissolved oxygen, colour, biochemical oxygen demand, nitrate, nitrite and total hydrocarbon among the physiochemical parameters of the study stations. A posteriori test revealed that station 2 & 3 were the cause of the significant difference. The dissolved oxygen level in stations 2 & 3 was lower than 5.0mg/L, which is recommended minimum allowable limit for aquatic life. About 7 rotifer species in large amount recorded in this study were encountered in station 1, 7 in station 2 & 3 while 12 species in station 4.

The Krishna Raja Sagara (KRS) reservoir with the gross capacity of 49.45 thousand million cubic feet (tmc ft) and maximum water level is 124.8 ft that quenches major cities of Bengaluru, Mysuru, Mandya and other 47 towns and 625 nearby villages for their daily needs. With water levels drastically receding during extreme hot conditions in the Cauvery basin, Bengaluru is more likely staring at severe drinking water shortage. Water scarcity issues may arise in upcoming years due to its demand especially in industrial sectors of Bengaluru city, low rainfall conditions, rapid evapo-transportation due to extreme summer seasons and global warming (?). The present work deals with the utilization of GIS based Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) technique to delineate best sites to modify surface run-off through limited field visits. SoI toposheet, IRS-LISS-III and ASTER DEM data are collected to achieve present aim.
