ABSTRACT:

The impact of NFL of Vijapur outfall effluent on the physiochemistry of Chopan and Parvati river was investigated during the sampling period of fourteen month. The outfall effluent discharges into Chopan river which ultimately join to Parvati river, both river water sample were collected. The physico chemical parameter’s analyzed for all samples included temperature, pH, T/Cl–, TDS, turbidity DO, BOD, COD, T/PO43–, F/NH3, TS, SS, T/NH3- N, conductivity, total hardness, urea, chloride and the sulphate of the NFL of Vijapur outfall effluent above the IS and WHO standards reflect the poor effluent quality generated by fertilizer plant.

KEYWORDS:
