Water quality assessment of Putrajaya Lake for alternative source of water supply
This study focused on determining water quality of Putrajaya Lake. Water Quality is an important guideline to describe the physical, chemical, and biological properties of water that classified them into each class with different suitable purposes. A study was conducted on physical, chemical, and bi...

Biological parameter were Total Coliform and E. Coli. The water was classified based on Water Quality Index (WQI) and National Water Quality Standard for Malaysia (NWQS). According to WQI, the classifications of water quality were based on each station. The most stations in Putrajaya Lake were classified into Class I and II. Station 3 possessed the highest quality surface water sources with WQI value 95 and belongs to Class 1. Station 4 followed by 92, continues with Station 2, Station 5, and Station 1 with value 91,89, and 87 respectively and all of them belong to Class II.
