Abstract:
Pakhal lake is the key source for domestic and irrigation purposes in the Pakhal area, Narsampet Mandal, Warangal Dist. has been assessed physico-chemically to evaluate its suitability for domestic and irrigation purposes. The physico-chemical characteristics were studied and analyzed during the period of one year. The important parameters taken into consideration are Temperature, PH, Electrical conductivity, Turbidity, TDS, Total alkalinity, Total hardness, Dissolved oxygen, BOD, COD, Chlorine, Sulphur, Phosphorus, Nitrate and Calcium were determined in the laboratory. The physico-chemical parameters were dertermined as per standard methods of APHA (2005). The results revealed that the condition of this lake in month wise analysis showed fluctuations in physico-chemical parameters. agent.
