Abstract

People on earth are under tremendous threat due to undesirable changes in the physical, chemical and biological properties of water. Due to increasing population, use of fertilizers and man-made activity, water is becoming polluted day by day with different harmful impurities. Natural water contamination is due to leaching of soils, mining processing and weathering of rocks etc. Hence, it is necessary to check the quality of drinking water at regular time interval, because if we use such contaminated water, we will suffer from varied type of water borne diseases. The availability of good quality water is an indispensable feature for preventing diseases and improving quality of life. It is necessary to know exactly the details of different physico-chemical parameters such as color, odor, acidity, hardness, pH, sulphate, chloride, dissolved oxygen and alkalinity used for testing of water quality.
