Assessement of Ground Water Quality In Karamadai By Using Minitab Software

Abstract

In human society, depletion of groundwater has been the major concern. The aim of the paper is to preserve and maintain balanced ecology with sustainment in groundwater. Hydrochemical study is a front line parameter to determine the quality of water for end users.  The sampling locations were located based on latitude and longitude, the sample locations were mapped using ArcGIS 9.1 software . Totally 20 groundwater samples were collected in the karamadai village and they were analysed for physico- chemical parameters Cluster analysis is supporting for the grouping on the basis of contamination characteristics of groundwater quality. The ammonia, nitrate and sulphate are determined by the spectrophotometer. Titrating method such as chloride is agitated with silver nitrate. Poor water quality has been observed in commercial zone of study area.
