An Assessment of Released Industrial Effluent and Its Impact on Water Quality Parameter in Aligarh

This study assessed the Ganga River's water quality in the Aligarh District in relation to industrial wastes.Between May and June 2024,data were gathered from six sample stations that included upstream,downstream, and midstream areas. Ex situ examinations (of absolute phosphorus TP, substance oxygen request COD, complete nitrogen TN, organic oxygen request BOD and all out disintegrated solids TDS),and were done notwithstanding in situ perceptions (of all out suspended solids TSS, electrical conductivity EC, temperature and pH,).The whole water quality was assessed using the weighted math water quality index (WQI). Massive contrasts in the water quality indicators between the sampling locales were tracked down by measurable analysis.Notably,pH values at two sites were higher than what the MoEF,and WHO considered to be acceptable.The river water was classified as "unsuitable for consumption" by the WQI results.Significant pollution is evident from the observed fluctuations in indices like COD,BOD,TN,TP,and TSS,which are mostly caused by industrial emissions.These results emphasize how urgently better pollution control and wastewater management strategies are needed. The study offers the municipal administration of Aligarh useful information for creating plans for efficiently managing and preserving the Ganga River,guaranteeing its sustainability and preserving public health.
