Abstract - Rivers are the most valuable resources for the survival of mankind. The development of an area and standards of living mainly depend on the type of surface water body in that area. Due to urbanization and industrialization, the water bodies were suffering seriously due to the disposal of highly concentrated liquid waste in them. ETP’S and STP’S play a major role in protecting water, but there are several zones where water bodies undergo serious disruption. Therefore, it is crucial to take immediate action to protect our rivers and other surface water bodies from pollution caused by human activities. This can be achieved through the implementation of stricter regulations, better waste management practices, and the use of advanced technologies to treat wastewater. It is our responsibility to preserve these valuable resources for the benefit of future generations. Therefore, it is crucial to take measures to protect our rivers and other surface water bodies from pollution and degradation caused by human activities. This includes implementing effective waste management systems, promoting sustainable development practices, and enforcing strict regulations to prevent industrial and urban waste from being dumped into water bodies. By doing so, we can ensure the long-term survival of these valuable resources and maintain a high standard of living for ourselves and future generations.
This present work is intended to study the physical, chemical, and biological parameters of the river Godavari. To find zones of pollution and educate the public about the environmental impact.
Key Words: Effluent treatment plant, Sewage treatment plant, Physical parameters, Chemical parameters, Biological parameters.
