Abstract

Water is an irreplaceable natural resource. The main goal of this research is to see the pollution of the fifth canal on Crna River in the region of Bitola. As measuring points for sampling for this analysis are: measuring point 1 (Crna River near the village of Novaci), measuring point 2 (fifth canal exit of Bitola), measuring point 3 (fifth canal near the village of Kravari) measuring point 4 (fifth canal before flowing into the Crna River), measuring point 5 (Crna River before being mixed with water from the fifth canal), measuring point 6 (Crna River after mixing with water from the fifth canal) and measuring point 7 (Crna River near the village of Skocivir). Water samples were taken in May and November. To determine the water quality, the following physicochemical parameters were made: turbidity (by turbidimeter), suspended solids, total organic carbon, biological oxygen demand, and dissolved oxygen (determined with UV pastel). From the results, it has been concluded that the highest pollution is in the fifth channel, measuring point 2 for the following parameters in May: turbidity (35.3 mg/L), total organic carbon (210.8 mg/L), suspended solids (77.5 mg/L, and in November164.0 mg/L). Of the measuring points of Crna River, the highest pollution is in measuring point 6 in November: biological oxygen demand (14.5 mg/L), and total organic carbon (13.7 mg/L). That is why it is suggested to purify the wastewater before it is released into the rivers.
