Physico chemical parameters of Anekere Water body Hassan district (Karnataka)

Abstract

Present paper deals with the physic-chemical parameters of Annekere water body, Channarayapatna Taluka, Hassan District, Karnataka State. The work was carried out during the period of Sep-2012 to Aug 2013.This water body was established for Irrigation, Drinking water and Fish culture purpose last two decades back.  It was in the out of 7 km distance from Channarayapatna town. In rainy season it’s receiving city sewage .industrial wastes, agriculture run off to the water body. This types of water injuries to the health of human other aquatic fauna. So there is an urgent requirement for its extent of pollution which will help us in further management of conservation. During the study period examine the physic-chemical parameters such as: atmosphere temperature, water temperature, pH, electrical conductivity, alkalinity, total hardness, TDS, Ca. Mg, chlorides, sulphates and phosphate, following stranded methods (APHA 1998). Now this water body is becoming eutrophic nature. Preventive measures like, diversion of sewages, total prohibition on washing of cattle and cloths. The physic-chemical properties of Anekere water body reveals that the level of water pollution is continuously increasing. The intensity of water pollution has very deteriorated in Anekere. Therefore, it has concluded that there is close relation between locations of water body and a level of water pollution. It is studied that there is inverse proportion between quantity of water in the water body or tanks and level of pollution.
