Abstract

Groundwater quality at any location depends on the mutual possessions of several progressions beside the subsurface flow path. The natural history and degree of infectivity in a particular region can be ascertained by hydro-chemical statistics. In order to assess the groundwater chemistry and its appropriateness for consumption purposes, sixty-three subsurface water samples were analyzed. Based on the perceptive of the hydro-geological and groundwater environment, the chemical characteristics of the groundwater were evaluated. The favored parameters for the quality assessment were major anions and cations along with pH, turbidity, total dissolved solids, total hardness, fluoride and iron as trace metals. Total dissolved solids distribution, hydro-chemical facies, Piper diagram, factor analysis, correlation studies and cluster analysis were done to monitor the study zone. The total dissolved solids (TDS) were clustered independently. It was concluded from the assessment that the groundwater of the Tirupur region was critically deteriorated by different anthropogenic activities.
