Description :
Abstract: Koyana river is one of the major river in district Satara. It has important role in the supply of water for drinking, agricultural and production of energy (Electricity). The physicochemical factors of Koyana river were studied at two different spots near Patan and Karad town and analyzed for the study of pollution. It is observed that the physicochemical factors such as temperature, pH, Turbidity, TDS, total alkalinity, total hardness, BOD and COD were increased at the Karad town as compared to the spot near Patan town. These results are discussed on the basis of origin of river and the increased population and Industries on the banks of river. Keywords: - Koyana river, physicochemical parameters
