Uncovering the Hidden Pollution in the Arkavathi
"Uncovering the Hidden Pollution in the Arkavathi - Emerging Contaminants Impacting Bengaluru & Beyond" is a report from Paani.Earth on the contaminants found in Arkavathi river due to testing. This report summarizes the results of pollution testing along the Arkavathi River conducted by Paani.Earth, in collaboration with the International Centre for Clean Water, in February and March 2024. The study quantifies the risks of emerging pollutants such as pesticides, hazardous industrial pollutants, and heavy metals by evaluating dry season pollution samples from seven sites along the Arkavathi and its tributary, the Vrishabhavathi River. Paani tested samples for 65 unique water and 20 unique sediment pollution parameters. This report then compares testing results to national and international standards and guidelines for freshwater and sediment pollution. Citation: Paani.Earth. (2025).
