Abstract

In this research work, environmental monitoring processes and assessments are carried out by the modeling and analysis of the water quality of the Chambal River in the state of Rajasthan. Various samples were collected from different locations along the course of the river flow. This water is used for different kinds of human, animal, and agriculture corp. activities. Comparative analyses were conducted on the water parameters, viz. biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, dissolved oxygen, total coliform, and conductivity, for the of consecutive years 2020 and 2021. A model was developed with the help of MATLAB Simulink software (Version R2019a) to find the causes of oxygen deficiency and reoxygenation in water with time and distance. The results of two consecutive years help to predict the responsible factors for the degradation of the river’s water quality. The water quality modeling and simulation results conclude that the water quality of the Chambal River flowing through Rajasthan can rejuvenate itself during an alarming oxygen deficit within a short period. According to the results of this study, the concentration of dissolved oxygen in the water of the Chambal River is high enough to support the survival of the endangered species that inhabit the area.
