Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Engineering and Technology - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 8

Abstract

Sion Lake is present in Mumbai city of Maharashtra. Water quality of Sion Lake studied in present paper. Water from lake collected during Apr 2012 to July 2012 and analyzed for five parameters for seasonal variation. During study it was observed that water quality of Sion Lake is polluted by domestic sewage from the intensively urbanized catchments. Sion Lake is extensively used for washing, bathing activities, and for conducting religious rituals, idol immersion which shows eutrophication problem; hence the study was done to find out the quality of water for various physico-chemical parameters. Sion Lake is found to be more organically polluted and greater degree of eutrophication was observed. The present paper describes details of human impact on lake, and suggests some measures for restoration of this important resource. Keywords: water quality, eutrophication, domestic sewage, restoration.
