| Abstract: | The surface water of the River Otsoron in Egbokodo Itsekiri Community, Delta State, Nigeria, is evaluated in this research for its physical, chemical, and heavy metal composition. From four (4) different locations along the river, fifteen (15) samples of water were taken and were analysed with the following physiochemical properties: pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, oil and grease, electrical conductivity, total suspended solid, chemical oxygen demand, sodium, lead, iron, zinc, calcium, total hardness, biochemical oxygen demand, magnesium, ammonia, nitrate, total alkalinity, sulphate, salinity, turbidity and total dissolve solid. The result obtained from the analysis shows that the concentration of oil and grease is between 0.003mg/l and 0.01mg/l which are below the permissible concentration limit. The pH is between 5.93 and 6.40. The total suspended solid were between 2.0mg/l-6.90mg/l, temperature 26.20c –27.540c, concentration of salinity. The concentration chemical oxygen demand ranges from 96.0mg/l to 384.0mgl. The physiochemical parameters – Electrical Conductivity, Ammonia, Nitrate, Sulphate, Alkalinity, Total Hardness, Turbidity, Total Dissolved Solid and Salinity except for BOD concentration that fell below the permissible concentration limit (FEPA 1992) for environmental pollution control. Moreover, data obtained for metal analysis shows that concentration of Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, Sodium and Chromium are within the acceptable limit. The concentration of Lead (Pb) from Point 1 to Point 4 are <0.001 which fall within the acceptable limit. All of the samples have an iron (Fe) content that varies from 0.006 to 3.433 mg/L. However, the concentrations of Lead (Pb) from Point 5 to Point 15 were above the maximum allowable limit (WHO), making the river water unfit for human consumption as this would result in Lead (Pb)-related illnesses like anemia and other similar conditions, as well as posing a risk of bio-accumulation to aquatic organisms and inhabitants who depend on the river water for drinking and another household uses. So before it may be utilised for anything, appropriate treatment is advised. |
