Abstract
Ahmedabad is unique in the whole of India in matters of environmental neatness and flourishing conditions and it is superior to other cites in the excellence of its monuments. Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority (AUDA) proposes to undertake work for revival, development of catchments areas and beatification of few lakes under the present project. Of these; Ramol, Vastral, Singarva and Nikol lake's waters were analysed for cationic contaminations. The results values of the metals estimated through 4 lakes during monthly Analysis from January-2010 to December -2010. Their ranges of concentration were comparing to permissible limits of BIS. Calcium content of water samples from all localities were within the permissible limit of BIS except locality no.2 November-2010. Magnesium content of water samples from all localities were within the permissible limit of BIS except locality no.3 in March-2010. Sulphate contents of water samples from locality no.2 December-2010. Ammonia Content of water samples from locality no.4 July-2010, Phosphate content of water samples from all localities were within the permissible limit of BIS except locality no.1 and 2 in April-2010. The results suggested that water was suitable for drinking purposes. Nitrite content of water samples from all localities were within the permissible limit of BIS except locality no, 1 in November-2010. The results suggested that water was suitable for drinking purposes.
Key Words: Cation, Calcium, magnesium, Sulphate, Ammonia, Phosphate, Nitrite, lake.
