---------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------urban areas are facing the problem of inadequate Abstract - Water plays an important role in human supply and low quality services. Approximately 80% of development and are on important finite natural resource. the physio-chemical characteristics of water determined to water turns to wastewater after its utilization. examine the water quality. The study of water quality involves The Mutha river is a river in western Maharashtra, a description of occurrence of various contaminants in water India it arises in the western ghats and flows eastward use. The present study was undertaken to carry out a quality until it merges with the Mula river in the city of Pune. It assessment and analysis of phosphate on behalf of wastewater has been dammed twice, first at the Panshet dam (on of river Mutha. Parameters like BOD,COD,PH,DO are Tested It ambi river), the water released here is dammed again is found that concentration is higher than permissible limit at Khadakwasla . and it is factor to blame eutrophication. Adsorption with In 2014, the govt of Maharashtra announced that the Activated rice husk ash (ARAH) is one of the most effective and pune municipal corporation would build new sewage economical method for removal of phosphate. The study treatment plant to ensure that no sewage would be revealed that the optimum conditions for the removal of phosphate compounds were achieved with percentage of 70%dump into river. 80% by activating rice husk with HCL.

1.INTRODUCTION

2.

India has witnessed a rapid increase in the urban population with that water demand also increasing rapidly but the insufficient wastewater treatment facilities resulting untreated sewage disposal into natural water bodies it produces negative effects on the health of both people and systems. Wastewater management is an intense need of today’s world the statistic’s shows that in India approximately 25 to 30 % of wastewater getting treated at satisfactory level. In rural areas people don’t have access of drinking water due to lack of piped water supply. On the other hand

To analyze the concentration of phosphate present in the Mutha river. Observing the factors boosting phosphate concentration To study the isotherms and theory of activated carbon Removal of phosphate by using rice husk activated carbon.

3.METHODOLOGY 1. Selection of water collection points on the Mutha river in pune was done with the help of maps. River bank survey and with public interaction in month of September site were selected. 2. After surveying 20 different nodal points were selected on the Mutha river by help of measuring tape.
