Abstract :

This study is the assessment of physical and chemical characteristics of different commonly used water sources, including agricultural wetlands, fisheries wetland, and Lotus cultivated wetland, the locality of Bhatar, Purba Bardhaman. Here Lotus cultivated wetland known as Site-A, agricultural wetland was Site-B and fisheries wetland was Site-C. Water samples were collected and measured the following physical and chemical parameters as like temperature, pH, DO, BOD, COD, Phosphate, Chloride, Nitrate, Nitrite, Fluoride, and Zinc. The results showed that temperature was ranging from 19°C to 28°C, pH was 6.6 to 7.6, DO was between 5.9 to 8.1, BOD was 4.1 to 6.9, COD was ranging 0.83 to 1.89, Phosphate was limited 0.090 to 0.150, chloride was reached 6.3 to 9.2, nitrate was extent from 1.18 to 2.10, Nitrite and Fluoride were only found in agricultural wetland and Zinc was not found any of this study site. This work aims to assess the physico-chemical quality of these different sources of water which have also used multipurpose for economic development.
