Abstract

Several sampling locations surveying groundwater and surface water were located within a 30 km radius of the Akola district region between 16/10/2016 and 16/02/2017. The laboratory evaluated the physical and chemical characteristics of twenty water samples in addition to one another. The laboratory analyzed the levels of BOD, Hardness, Alkalinity, Chlorides, TDS, and DO through a variety of procedures. The findings were assessed in relation to the ISI Standard and the potable water quality criteria established by the World Health Organization (WHO). An analysis of the outcomes revealed that specific water samples fail to meet one or more of the criteria specified in the benchmarks for potable water quality. A considerable proportion of the samples demonstrated a substantial degree of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) contamination. This study investigated the importance and practicality, as well as their ineffectiveness, of these indicators in forecasting the properties of surface water and groundwater quality.
