The research project presented herein is an endeavor to address the growing concern of pollution in Kachapur Lake, situated in the Kamareddy district. The elevated pollution levels have taken a toll on the aquatic ecosystem, particularly affecting the fish population. This study outlines its core objectives, which encompass the evaluation of nonessential heavy metal concentrations in fish, assessment of seasonal variations, and an extensive analysis of key physical and chemical parameters, including temperature, electrical conductivity, turbidity, and more. To accomplish these objectives, the project will undertake a multi-faceted approach. This includes the quantification of heavy metal concentrations in fish samples and the exploration of potential correlations between these levels and the laboratory analysis of metals in stock and working standard solutions. Furthermore, the research will involve rigorous calibration of instruments, the digestion of water samples for metal analysis, and the processing and digestion of sediments to determine their metal content. This comprehensive investigation aims to shed light on the intricate relationship between pollution levels and aquatic health in Kachapur Lake. By unraveling the impact of heavy metals and seasonal variations on both fish and water quality, this research project aspires to provide valuable insights and recommendations for mitigating pollution and revitalizing the lake's ecosystem.
