A Study on Drinking Water Quality in Ariyalur Area, Tamil Nadu, India
The present study deals with the evaluation of quality of groundwater at different locations of Ariyalur town, Tamil Nadu. Groundwater samples were collected from ten different locations of the town. The groundwater quality parameters such as pH, EC, temperature, dissolved oxygen, alkalinity, acidity, hardness, calcium, magnesium, silicate, phosphate, nitrate and sulphate were estimated in the samples to evaluate their quality. The results indicate that the waters have grossly high values of hardness and alkalinity, which reduces the quality of water for drinking.
