Abstract
In the present study we are intended to find out the diffuse chemical pollution in central India on the basis of surface water bodies. We have designed twenty sampling stations district for this study in east zone i.e. Rewa, Satna, Sidhi, Singrauli, Shahdol, Umaria, Katni, Panna, Chhatarpur, Jabalpur ,Mandala, Dindori, Siwani, Chhindwara, Narsinghpur, Hosangabad, Betul, Damoh, Sagar and Bhopal. Various water quality parameters such as temperature, pH, turbidity total hardness, TDS, DO, BOD, COD, nitrate, sulphate and phosphate were determined using standard analytical methods . All the values were compared with the WHO Standard. Seventy five percent (75%) samples of BOD and COD were observed higher than the permissible limit during three different season set by WHO. Temperature, TDS, nitrate, sulphate and phosphate were found well within the prescribed limit. The access of contamination may be the outcome of high human, industrial and agricultural activities in their locality. Proper Monitoring is needed to avoid anthropogenic contamination.
