XRD and SEM Analysis of Tapti River Sediment: A Case Study

Author(s): R. B. Marathe

During the present investigation the sediments of the Tapti River have been analyse by the XRD and SEM techniques. In this investigation the minerals found are Quartz, Kaolinites, Calcite, Vermiculite, Polygorskite, Micas and Gibbsite. The minerals introduced in aquatic system or into sediment as a result of weathering of soil and rocks which change the composition of minerals due to various activity of human such as mining, metallargical industries, various manufacturing process of metals & non-metals, organic matter, and physical factors like , pH, electrical conductivity, and also it is depend upon adsorption, desorption phenomenon of sediments.
