Abstract

Water is an elixir of life. It is an important component to human survival. Water should be purified for a better life style. It is the basic duty of every individual to conserve water resources. The present study attempts to bring an acute awareness among the people about the quality of ground water by taking water samples from specific locations for analysis. The experimental analysis was done for various Physico-chemical and biological parameters such as pH, Electrical Conductivity, TDS, CO 3 2-, TH, Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ , Cl-, NO 3-, SO 4 2-, Turbidity, Na + , K + , Fe, and F-etc., The results are compared with standards of WHO, USPH and BIS and ISIRI. In the present study, a statistical analysis for eight data points of drinking water at eight villages, of Guntur District has been done and the results were discussed here. The systematic correlation and regression analysis showed significant linear relationship among different pairs of water quality parameters.
