Chemical and bacteriological status of Yeoti Lake of Mohol (Maharashtra)

The present study deals with the assessment of physico-chemical characteristics of Yeoti lake, Solapur. The physico-chemical characteristics of Yeoti lake were studied and analyzed for a period of one year, during June 2009 – May 2010. Seasonal variations from two sampling stations of the reservoir were observed. Various parameters including pH, dissolved oxygen, chloride, phosphate, nitrate, calcium, magnesium MPN, Zinc, Iron and Manganese were analyzed. The results revealed that there were significant seasonal variations in some physicochemical parameters and most of the parameters were in the normal range but higher MPN indicates that the water requires some treatment before using this water for drinking purpose
