Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 10
Abstract
By analysing the water sample of the region of Thevara we want to understand the quality of water used by the people of this region. Water quality refers to the chemical, physical, biological, and radiological characteristics of water. It is a measure of the condition of water relative to the requirements of one or more biotic species and or to any human need or purpose. It is most frequently used by reference to a set of standards against which compliance can be assessed. Water samples for the analysis where collected from Vembanad Lake, well, bore well, and corporation in Thevara region. The samples were analysed for parameters like pH, electrical conductivity, dissolved oxygen, biological oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, total hardness, alkalinity, total dissolved salts, total suspended solids and chloride. The values of each parameter gave interesting values which therefore where used to determine the quality. Illustrations were made for the ease of comparison. Out of all samples the parameters had very disappointing values, therefore water quality is not up to the standard.
