ABSTRACT

River water sample testing is the process of analyzing water samples collected from rivers to assess
their quality and detect any contaminants or pollutants that may be present in the water. The
purpose of this study is to determine the quality of river water samples collected from different
locations and to identify the sources of pollution in order to develop strategies to manage them.

The samples were collected from various locations along the river and tested for pH, temperature,
dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, nitrate, phosphate, and total suspended solids. The
results of the tests were then compared to national standards for drinking water and river water
quality.

The study found that the quality of the water samples varied greatly depending on the location of
the sample. Some samples met national standards for drinking water, while others contained high
levels of pollutants such as nitrogen and phosphorus. Additionally, the study identified several
potential sources of pollution, including agricultural runoff, residential and industrial waste, and
stormwater runoff.

Overall, this study highlights the importance of monitoring and testing river water samples to
maintain water quality and protect human and environmental health. It also demonstrates the need
for targeted pollution management strategies in order to reduce the impact of pollution on our
natural water resources.

Introduction

Water quality is measured by several factors, such as the concentration of dissolved oxygen, bacteria
levels, the amount of salt (or salinity), or the amount of material suspended in the water (turbidity). In
some bodies of water, the concentration of microscopic algae and quantities of pesticides, herbicides,
heavy metals, and other contaminants may also be measured to determine water quality.

Although scientific measurements are used to define water quality, it is not a simple thing to say “that
water is good” or “that water is bad.” So, the determination is typically made relative to the purpose of
the water – is it for drinking or to wash a car with or for some other purpose?

Poor water quality can pose a health risk for people. Poor water quality can also pose a health risk for
ecosystems.

Literature Survey

WATER TESTING FOR PUBLIC WATER SUPPLIES

A Public Water System (PWS) is one that has at least 15 service connections or serves at least 25
people per day for at least 60 days of the year. If you receive drinking water from a PWS, the source of
drinking water is either a surface water reservoir, a public well that pumps groundwater, or both. A
system of pipes distributes the water to you and your neighbors. When your home is on a PWS, there
are fewer concerns about water quality and safety because they are routinely tested and treated (if
needed) for potential contaminants according to the EPA “Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA)-1974.
The Environmental Protection Division (EPD) of Georgia ensures that all public water systems in the state
continuously meet SDWA standards. Occasionally, problems such as spills, floods or treatment malfunctions do
prevent the PWS from meeting water quality standards. Consumers are notified immediately of such violations
and advised if any corrective actions (such as boiling water) are required. In 1996, Congress amended the SDWA,
requiring PWSs to begin providing annual drinking water quality reports to customers beginning in 1999. The
report is referred to as Consumer Confidence Report (CCR). If you have not received your CCR, you may request it
by contacting your water utility company.
WATER TESTING FOR PRIVATE WATER SUPPLIES
Government agencies do not monitor or regulate water quality in private wells, and water testing is not
required by any federal or state regulation. If you are one of the 1.7 million Georgians with a private well, you are
responsible for the quality and safety of your well water. Testing your well water quality is important to your
health. Properly constructed and maintained water wells can provide many years of trouble-free service.
However, surface contaminants may enter the well if it is not properly constructed and maintained, and the well
may eventually deteriorate or become damaged as it gets older. In addition, some groundwater naturally contains
one or more chemical substances at levels above the EPA’s health-based standards, called the Maximum
Contaminant Levels (MCLs). The taste, odor and appearance of your drinking water can give you an indication of
its quality, but it does not indicate if the water is really safe or unsafe to drink. Contaminated water can taste and
smell fine, whereas unpleasant-tasting or -smelling water can be safe to drink or use. Many of the most serious
problems can only be detected through laboratory testing of the water.

TYPES OF WATER QUALITY TESTS

In general, water testing can be classified as bacterio¬logical, mineral/inorganic and organic chemicals
tests.

 Bacteriological tests: generally check for indicator bacteria (for example, total coliform, fecal
coliform or Escherichia coli) and can indicate the presence or absence of disease-causing bacteria.
However, there are many types of bacteriological tests that cover a variety of bacteria. These tests are
costly and are conducted only if they are absolutely essential.

PROPOSAL

(ACADEMIC YEAR 2022-23)

Title of project: - River water sample testing

Introduction: - River basin has been a major source of water supply for manypurposes and provides fertile lands, which support the devel-
opment of highly populated residential areas due to its favor-able conditions . Human settlements andindustries have long been concentrated
along rivers, estuaries,and coastal zones owing to the predominance of water-bornetrade. A river’s water quality is the composite of
severalinterrelated compounds, which are subjected to local and tem-poral variations and also affected by the volume of water flow . Rivers
constitute the main inland waterbody for domestic, industrial, and agricultural activities andoften carry large municipal sewage, industrial
wastewater dis-charges, and seasonal runoff from an agricultural field

Objective/application/outcome: - In this project we are going to study about the different types of of water sample test , how the sample are
collected and benifit of water sample test

Methodology: -

2. Group formation: A group of six students will be formed

3. Discussion: Around 05-08 different project topics various topics will be discussed Among the group members under the guidance
of our mentor.
4. Brain Storming: The topic will be finalised and approved by the HOD and guide. Lot Of discussion will be done, ideas, concept etc.
will be put forth by each group member
5. Work Distribution: After the brain storming session, we will divide the work equally Among the group members with the approval
and guidance of our mentor. Also, daily Discussion will be done and a diary will be maintained and daily work done will be Noted
in the same
6. Project Proposal Making: A project proposal will be made and will be submitted after Getting it approved from the mentor and
project coordinator.
7. Work to be done in stage I: After the proposal is finalised, we will be making a report In which the topics will be covered are How
to use granite powder as an additive in Construction work.
