ABSTRACT

Water is an important thing for regulation and growth of all living organisms. This study was conducted to evaluate factors regulating some selected bore wells water quality in an area. Potable water is safe enough to be consumed by human, plants and animals. Water samples collected from seven bore wells from Pahadsingpura, Aurangabad district were subjected to physico-chemical and biological analysis. Physico-chemical analysis carried using titrimetric, spectro photometric method to evaluate the quality. The results showed that PH, temperature, turbidity, chloride, nitrate, and total hardness of all the bore well water samples were the permissible limits while magnesium and phosphate; samples gave values well above the permissible limits decided by WHO. BW sample- 7 gave maximum of magnesium, BW sample-3 & 5 show highest values of phosphate. Dissolved oxygen results showed higher values by BW sample-1. Generally results exhibited significant variation in the parameters studied on the samples. These samples could be attributed to the geographical positions and depth of the bore wells. Hence all these Bore well water samples are safe and suitable for domestic, garden plantation and drinking purpose.
