Field kits for water quality monitoring–A novel approach

Satish Kumar Moparthi, M. V. Raju, G. Venu Ratna Kumari

Abstract :

 Monitoring toxic or harmful elements in drinking water is essential for the health and hygiene of population. ?e levels of elements such as As and F in drinking water are constantly being revised in view of the harmful effects. At present As more than 10 ppb renders the water unsafe. Expensive and sophisticated equipment are required to monitor these elements at the prescribed levels. ?e instrument requirement is stripped down to basic light source and detector under a micro controller. ?e chemistry is rewritten so that a field assistant having no background can also produce reliable analytical data. ?e systems are field tested during the past 18 months and are perfected. As an example the arsenic kit is discussed in detail in this paper
