Abstract:
Water quality of Serlui-A River was evaluated by using Water Quality Index (WQI) technique. Based on several water quality parameters, the WQI provides a single number that expresses the overall water quality at certain location. Eight important parameters such as pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), total hardness, total alkalinity, dissolved oxygen (DO), Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), chloride, electrical conductivity (EC) and phosphate were taken for the calculation of WQI. The WQI values for the Serlui-A river ranged from 35 to 134. The water quality attributes and WQI depict that the river water at Site 1 (Control/Reference Site) is clean, and intensity of pollutants is increased from upstream to downstream of river indicated that an increase in pollution load in river (Site 2 to Site 4).
