Abstract

Physico – Chemical analysis of well and bore well water samples was carried out from eleven sampling stations of Guntur District for a period of two months from August to September 2009. The analysis of different parameters namely-pH, turbidity, color, total alkalinity, total hardness, chloride, sulphate, nitrate, TDS, DO, BOD, COD and fluoride were carried out as per standard methods. The parametric ratios and variation of temperature with D.O and Nitrate were studied. The results indicate that the fluoride and calcium in some sampling stations were found above the permissible limits.
