Abstract

This paper  deals with the  analysis  of different  water parameters  of River Panv Dhoi  which  flows through Saharanpur district.  It  is  a streamfed river  and a tributary  of Hindon.The  sample collection was usually  completed  during  morning hrs.  between  8:00 AM to  10:00 AM.  The parameters  like Temperature, Turbidity,  Conductivity, Total  Solids (TS),  Total  Suspended  Solids  (TSS), Total  Dis• solved Solids (TDS), pH,  Dissolved Oxygen (DO),  Free  Carbon dioxide (CO,), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD),  Chemical  Oxygen Demand (COD),  Alkalinity, Total Hardness,  Chloride  (CI)  and heavy metals  like  Lead,  Zinc,  Mercury and copper were analyzed.
