Physicochemical Indicators Of Emerging Pollutants In Aligarh's Urban Water System

Abstract

This study looked into emerging pollutants in the urban water system of Aligarh by way of key physico-chemical parameters in terms of pH, BOD, COD, Total Coliform, and trace metals through AAS analysis. With the help of WQI, seasonal and monthly alterations of water quality are presented which shows contamination risks during periods of time. A predictive model of Total Coliform levels and correlation analysis among parameters reflect complex dynamics in pollution. These will help in the development of water quality management strategies in a sustainable way, considering modern analytical approaches for the effective protection of public health.
