  • Water Quality Analysis of River Tungabhadra Near Harihar
    Vol-3 Issue-2 2017 IJARIIE-ISSN(O)-2395-4396 WATER QUALITY ANALYSIS OF RIVER TUNGABHADRA NEAR HARIHAR T M VINAY1 1 Assistant professor, CIVIL department, MCET, Telangana, India ABSTRACT River Tungabhadra flowing near Harihar taluk in Karnataka (India), receives waste water discharges from villages located on the bank of River and waste water discharged from industries located in Harihar. The present study involves the implementation of QUAL2KW model to determine the water quality status of this polluted our selected stretch of River. The River samples are collected for pre monsoon and lab results are used for calibrating the model. We observed that predicted values of the model are approximately in match with the observed values. Model results for pre-monsoon indicate decreasing quality of water from upstream to downstream for the selected segment. This is because of discharge of domestic waste water from Rajanahalli, Halasabalu and Nalawagal into River and due to release of waste water from industries located on banks of River in Harihar. Since many of the selected water quality parameters are exceeding their limits, water in the selected segment is not fit for drinking or it is not portable. Keyword: - Water quality, QUAL2KW, River pollution, River Tungabhadra. 1. INTRODUCTION Water pollution caused by increased industrialization and urbanization is considered to be the major problem which is faced by the mankind in India. The increase of water pollution in rivers results in decrease of DO concentration and increase of toxic chemicals concentration which ends up in death of aquatic animals like fishes which are further consumed by humans, affects their health [8].

The affect of several physico-chemical parameters on the abundance and distribution of zooplankton is discussed. The investigation reveals that zooplankton better thrive in alkaline water and the water of Karanja river is fit for fish production and human use.

    GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF WATER RESOURCES CENTRAL GROUND WATER BOARD GROUND WATER INFORMATION BOOKLET BIDAR DISTRICT, KARNATAKA SOUTH WESTERN REGION BANGALORE JULY 2008 FOREWORD Ground water contributes to about eighty percent of the drinking water requirements in the rural areas, fifty percent of the urban water requirements and more than fifty percent of the irrigation requirements of the nation. Central Ground Water B oard has decided to bring out district level ground water information booklets highlighting the ground water scenario, its resource potential, quality aspects, recharge – discharge relationship, etc., for all the districts of the country. As part of this, Central Ground Water Board, South Western Region, Bangalore, is preparing such booklets for all the 27 districts of Karnataka state, of which six of the districts fall under farmers’ distress category. The Bidar district Ground Water Information Booklet ha s been prepared based on the information available and data collected from various state and central government organisations by several hydro-scientists of Central Ground Water Board with utmost care and dedication. Dr.J.Davithuraj, Assistant Hydrogeologi st, has prepared this booklet under the guidance of Dr.K.Md. Najeeb, Superintending Hydrogeologist, Central Ground Water Board, South Western Region, Bangalore. The figures were prepared by S/Sri. H.P.Jayaprakash, Scientist-C and K.Rajarajan, Assistant Hydrogeologist. The efforts of Report processing section in finalising and bringing out the report in this format are commendable. I take this opportunity to congratulate them for the diligent and careful compilation and observation in the form of this book let, which will certainly serve as a guiding document for further work and help the planners, administrators, hydrogeologists and engineers to plan the water resources management in a better way in the district.
