MONITORING OF PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS AND SURFACTANTS IN WASTE WATER MIXING WITH NARMADA RIVER AT JABALPUR, (INDIA).
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Research (IJAR) - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
The Khandari Nala mixing with Narmada River inflict an assortment of organic pollutant in river Narmada has enormous ritual consequence among pilgrims and tourists at Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India. The River bank is being polluted due to mass bathing, washing, disposal of sewage, industrial waste and these human activities are abating its water quality. To conclude the collision of these activities, Narmada water quality at diverse sites has been analyzed for organic pollutants phenolic compounds and surfactants, which have rarely been assessed and reported so far. The grades of scrutiny show that phenolic compounds are present in water samples of selected sites during monthly monitoring from September 2015 to August 2016. The site Khandari Nala mix with back wash have been detected with surfactant concentrations more than permissible limit (1.00 mg/l). Also at most of the sites, phenol concentration crossed the desirable limit of BIS during the period of analysis. This distribution of surfactants and phenol in water has potential risk for skin diseases and cancer and requires regular monitoring with appropriate measures. This study is imperative because more than treatment measure continuous assessment is important to design appropriate remediation strategy.
