Abstract

An assessment of the ground water quality was carried out in industrial area of Pydibheemavaram, Vizianagaram District, Andhrapradesh, India. The study was aimed at examining the various samples of ground water and the quality of the ground water as it relates to public health. Eight ground water samples were taken from boreholes and open wells and PH, EC, Chloride, Total Alkalinity, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and Total Hardness contents were measured. The results were compared with WHO, and IS: 10500-91 standards. The usefulness of these parameters in predicting ground water quality characteristics were studied. Thus an attempt has been made to find the quality of ground water in industrial area of Pydibheemavaram suitable for drinking purposes or not.
