Abstract

The quality of ground water depends on various constituents and their concentration. Ground water is the only source of potable water for majority of people in the urban and rural area. Bore well water samples were collected from five sampling spots of Dnyaneshwari Nagar, Amravati. This was analyzed by standard analytical methods. Water sample is collected by grab sampling method and stored in clean polyethylene five-liter cans. Physico-chemical analysis was carried out in the laboratory. The physical parameter like Temperature, Colour, Turbidity, Total Solids, Total suspended solids, Total dissolved solids, Conductivity and Chemical parameter like Alkalinity, Hardness, Acidity, pH, Dissolved oxygen, Chloride, Total hardness, Phosphate, etc. were analyzed to observe the current status of the groundwater quality. All parameters were compared with the standard desirable limit of drinking water standards as prescribed by different agencies such as WHO standard, ISI standard and USPH Standard.
