Abstract

The collection of groundwater samples took place from 16 March to 16 July 2021 at various sampling locations within a 30-kilometer radius of the Akola district. A total of twenty water samples underwent physical and chemical analysis in the laboratory. The laboratory conducted various analyses, including pH, EC, BOD, hardness, alkalinity, chlorides, TDS, and DO. Every outcome was assessed in relation to the potable water quality standards established by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the ISI Standard. Compared results indicate that a number of water samples fail to meet one or more of the aforementioned standards for the quality of potable water. Numerous samples contained extremely contaminated TDS. The discussion centered on the significance, utility, and inefficacy of these parameters in forecasting the characteristics of surface water quality in groundwater.
