Experimental Verification of Namami Gange Project on Various Parameters of Gangas Water in Varanasi

Abstract

The Pollution of India’s National River Ganges has become dangerous for people near it. After observing the data, it was found that Ganges in high profile cities like Kanpur, Varanasi and Allahabad was highly polluted. In this study water quality parameters were analysed in these highly polluted areas before and after the launching of Namami Gange project. In this research it is shown that if sewage treatment capacity is increased then how pollution in the river decreasing. Self-purification of Ganges is taken into account using de-oxygenation and re-aeration process. After analysing self-purification concept certain results are concluded about the pollution of river. It is advisable that sewage treatment network should be increased on a large scale in highly polluted stretches. The goal of this research is to determine the change in quality parameters of Ganges water due to Namami Gange project.
