Abstract
The Gomti originates from Gomat Taal (Fulhaar jheel) near Madho Tanda, Pilibhit, India. It extends 960 km through Uttar Pradesh and meets the Ganges near Saidpur, Kaithi, 27 km from Varanasi district. The Earth is facing issues with a large kind of pollutants. Healthy soil, clean water, and air are very much necessary to live properly. In today’s world, Soil, water, and air are not any longer clean and pure however create human health risks. Gomti receives immense quantities of untreated waste, agricultural runoff, brings heaps of pesticides, fertilizer, street washout's transportation oil, asphalt, sediment, and lots of sorts of serious metals from different sources. The study area covers the Gomti River in part of Lucknow city of Uttar Pradesh lies between 80.899893 to 80.968180 N latitude 26.886799 to 26.833321 E longitude. To thoroughly investigate the Physico- Chemical Parameters in the Gomti River of Lucknow city, a total of eight sampling sites were selected between Guaghat upstream and Piparaghat. Samples are collected and analyzed from the proposed locations. The Physico-chemical parameters in the water of river Gomti were assessed to know about the water quality of the river. Parameters like temperature, TSS, TDS, pH, Hardness, Turbidity, Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Nitrate, Chlorine, Alkalinity, Calcium, Magnesium, BOD, COD were determined. After analysis of the parameters in the laboratory, variation of the parameters at a different location is analyzed. We present this variation through the graphs. Variation of many of the parameters is within limit according to the standards limit but some parameters show the excess pollution in the river. Dissolved Oxygen is zero at three sites and other three sites it is below 3 PPM which shows the pollution in water. It could be due to the high discharge of water from the catchment area, industries, and various drains. We also analyzed the correlation between the parameters. It will help to know the variation in any parameters by changing the value of other parameters.
