Abstract:

Electrical conductivity (EC) study of different types of soil is an interesting factor. The available compounds dissolved in water breakdown into ions. In this riverbed soil EC variation study constitutes, Humus content, Base saturation, cat ion exchange and mineral composition. The spectral assignment of (FTIR) peaks revealed the presence of O-H bond, C-O bond, methyl group, chlorine etc. The analytical study of elements like Carbon, Silicon, and Oxygen present in the riverbed soil sample carried out by SEM-EDAX-SAIF, IIT Chennai. The presence of functional groups and mineral elements in the riverbed soil played a vital role for EC variation. The characteristics study of EC of soil cell will create a new source of energy which is Eco friendly and pollution free.
