The pollutant samples ere collected from the drains of 11 stations each at the banks of River Cauvery and Kalingarayan canal to analyse physico-chemical characteristics. The data clearly revealed the pollution pattern and magnitude of pollutant load in the study area. The quality of pollutants and possible suggestions to minimize the pollution hazards have been discussed.

Abstract


The pollutant samples ere collected from the drains of 11 stations each at the banks of River Cauvery and Kalingarayan canal to analyse physico-chemical characteristics. The data clearly revealed the pollution pattern and magnitude of pollutant load in the study area. The quality of pollutants and possible suggestions to minimize the pollution hazards have been discussed.
