Study Of Water Quality Index (WQI) Of Different Physicochemical Parameters Of Taladanda Canal Water In Cuttack And Paradeep City, Odisha, India
Main Article Content
Abstract
A physicochemical study of Taladanda canal water samples were collected in the area of Cuttack and Paradeep city; from upstream (CW1), midstream (CW2) and downstream (CW3) of the canal. It has been carried out for the suitability and drinking purposes of the surface water. During 2020-2021 in four different seasons’ namely winter, summer, monsoon and post-monsoon the surface water was monitored. Percolation of domestic sewage and anthropogenic activities into the canal water of the study area has been proved by the analysis. Downstream parameters levels of canal water were significantly elevated than the corresponding upstream. The major source of potable water in Paradeep area is canal water, it need constant monitoring to maintain water quality.
