Evaluation of the physical and chemical quality and trace elements of water in Cupatitzio River, Michoacán
In Mexico, around 90 % of the rivers are polluted mainly from wastewater resulting in human health issues. This work is aimed at determining the water quality of Cupatitzio River; 20 sampling sites (SS) were determined in rainy (August 2016) and dry (May 2017) seasons; 31 trace elements (TE) were obtained and 15 physicochemical parameters; three quality indices were calculated: Water Quality Index (WQI), Pollution Index (IC) and the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment, Water Quality Index (CCMEWQI). Statistical analysis was conducted to associate variables. Results show for the rainy season, the quality indices indicates that the worst quality is found in the middle watershed due to the wastewater and leachate from a landfill; in the dry season, low quality reaches the low watershed. High concentrations of Fe, Al and P trace elements are found in the middle and lower watershed. It is worth mentioning that they may be associated with the pesticides used in avocado orchards. Finally, analyses show an association between poor quality, low dissolved oxygen and the presence of reservoirs. Therefore, the river water is not fit for human use and consumption.
期刊介绍:
Published by the Mexican Institute of Water Technology, Water Technology and Sciences (Tecnología y ciencias del agua) is a highly specialized journal which reflects two important characteristics:
The interdisciplinary nature of its articles and notes.
The international scope of its authors, editors, reviewers, and readers.
It constitutes the continuity of the journal Irrigación en México (Irrigation in Mexico) (1930-1946); Ingeniería hidráulica en México (Hydraulic Engineering in Mexico) (1947-1971); Recursos hidráulicos (Hydraulic Resources) (1972-1978), and Ingeniería hidráulica en México, second period (1985-2009).
The journal is aimed at researchers, academics, and professionals who are interested in finding solutions to problems related to the water.
The journal’s contents are interdisciplinary and contain previously unpublished articles and notes that offer original scientific and technological contribution that are developed in the fields of knowledge related to the following disciplines:
Water and energy.
Water quality.
Hydro-agricultural sciences.
Political and social science.
Water management.
Hydrology.
Hydraulics.
