Review on Assessment of Water in Sidhmukh Feeder Canal

Abstract

The Southern Haryana relies heavily on the sidhmukh feeder canal for irrigation. This research was conducted to evaluate the physicochemical quality of sidhmukh feeder Canal water for the purposes of determining whether or not it is fit for human consumption and agricultural use. The places sampled span the whole length of the sidhmukh feeder, pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), total hardness (TH), turbidity (EC), electrical conductivity (EC), total alkalinity (TA), sodium (Na), potassium (K), chlorides (Cl), fluorides (Fl), and nitrates (NO3) were among the physicochemical parameters tested. There was a comparison of the measured values to the BIS (2012) and WHO Standards. The findings indicated that some of the water samples had too much turbidity and Iron to be used for human consumption or irrigation. It was discovered that these values were too high. All chosen samples had water quality measures within acceptable values, including EC, TDS, TH, Total alkalinity, chlorides, fluorides, BOD, and COD. Compared to the deteriorating groundwater quality in the Haryana and Rajasthan region, the quality of the surface water in the study area seems to be higher
