Assessment of physico-chemical parameters of groundwater were carried out in a radius of three km from the SIPCOT industrial area of Perundurai. Water samples were collected from different villages and analysed for various water quality parameters like pH, turbidity, colour, odour, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, total hardness, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, iron, nitrate, chloride, fluoride and sulphate. The study indicates that groundwaters near the SIPCOT region are not fit for human consumption with regard to many parameters.
