摘要:In the perilously, polluted stretch of Yamuna river from Delhi to Chambal, there is significant fluctuations indissolved oxygen level from Nil to well above saturation level. There are both abstractive as well as in stream uses likeirrigation, domestic water supply and industrial has been served by river water. The condition deteriorates further dueto significant water abstraction which reduces the dilution capacity of the river. The 22 km stretch of Delhi is themaximum polluted amongst all. It is acquired that, a large population is dependent on the river, it is of significance topreserve its water quality This paper highlights the present condition of river Yamuna in terms of its quality, flowingthrough the National Capital Territory of Delhi. Further it has been compared to the scenario if the flow of the riverdownstream of wazirabad barrage is maintained taking in account the environmental flow requirement of variousstretches. MATLAB is the programming tool used here, to develop DO-BOD model of river Yamuna for predicting itsquality.
