Quality assesment of ground water of nearby areas of lasara dhanola drain water for drinking and irrigation purpose

Abstract

With the growing concern over water scarcity and pollution, the utilization of alternative water sources such as drained water has gained traction. However, the safety and suitability of drain water for human consumption and agricultural use necessitate thorough evaluation. The study employs a multidimensional approach to assess the physical, chemical, and biological parameters of drain water. Parameters including turbidity, pH, dissolved solids, heavy metals, pesticide residues, and microbial contamination are analyzed to determine water quality. Sampling points along the drainage system are identified, and water samples are collected at regular intervals to capture variations in quality. Laboratory analysis of the samples is conducted following standardized protocols and guidelines. Results are compared with established water quality standards for drinking water and irrigation. The article discusses the implications of exceeding permissible limits and assesses the associated risks to human health and agricultural productivity. Recommendations are provided for treatment options, regulatory measures, and public awareness initiatives to address identified risks and promote safer water usage practices. An action plan outlines steps for implementing recommended measures, including treatment technologies, regulatory enforcement, and stakeholder engagement.
