The quality of water generally refers to the component of water present at the optimum level for suitable growth of plants and animals. Temperature, turbidity, nutrients, hardness, alkalinity, dissolved oxygen, etc. are some of the important factors that determines the growth of living organisms in the water body. The Bibi lake, a natural lake of Vatva taluka, Gujarat, India is completely surrounded by slum area whom discharge their domestic waste directly into the lake water creating environmental hazard.
