Abstract

Open well water and ground water samples were collected from several sampling points within a 30-kilometer radius of the Akola district region between August 16 and December 16, 2021. Twenty water samples were tested in the lab for physical and chemical qualities. The laboratory conducted tests to analyze pH, EC, ORP, BOD, hardness, alkalinity, chlorides, TDS, DO, and other parameters. All of the data were compared to the drinking water quality standards set by the WHO (World Health Organization) and ISI. When the findings are compared, some of the water samples fail to meet one or more of the drinking water quality standards listed above. Many samples included excessive levels of TDS. The significance, utility, and ineffectiveness of these criteria in forecasting ground water surface water quality characteristics were discussed.
