ASSESSMENT OF WATER PARAMETERS OF UPPER KODERADAM IN MOUNT ABU AFTER RAINFALLManoj Kumar Sepat and Hanumant Singh ChouhanAbstract The current research aims to investigate the effects of physicochemical factors on water quality, particularlyduring the summer at Upper Kodera Dam in Mount Abu (Raj), India. For the investigation of physicochemicalfactors such such as water and air temperature, pH, transparency, total hardness, dissolved oxygen, totalalkalinity, and chemical oxygen demand, water samples from the dam were taken. The acquired findingswere compared to WHOBIS (World Health Organization and Bureau of Indian Standard) values permittedlimits for drinking water. A few parameters at various stations were found to be close to the allowablelimits. With reference to the analysed criteria, the current study identified how rainfall affects the waterquality of Upper Kodera Dam water. Samples of 10 water were taken from Upper Kodra Dam betweenMay 2021 and November 2022. Total hardness, Alkalinity, chloride, pH, total dissolved solids, iron, dissolvedoxygen, fluoride, nitrate, sulphate, chromium, iron, chromium, and MPN of coliforms are among thebiological and physicochemical parameters that were examined. According to the report, the current watersupply needs urgent remediation since the water quality is subpar. |
