Abstract :
Physico–chemical characteristics of water are of vital concern to human as it is directly related to human health. Water quality is an important criterion used for evaluating the suitability of water for drinking, irrigation and recreation. During present investigation, water quality variables of ground water were assessed from Peerwadi open well of Uran Beach, Dist – Raigad, Navi Mumbai from October 2010 to August 2013. Various physico–chemical parameters assessed includes pH, Temperature, Total solids (TS), Total dissolved solids (TDS), Total suspended solids (TSS), Conductance, Dissolved oxygen (DO), Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), Carbon dioxide (CO2), Chemical oxygen demand (COD), Salinity, Chloride, Alkalinity, Total hardness, Calcium hardness and Magnesium hardness. This study reveals that except the high values of chlorides and salinity, values of other physico–chemical variables are within the guideline values of WHO Standard for potable water. The quality of water from Peerwadi open well of Uran Beach was found to be safe and utilizable for drinking and other purposes.
