Abstract
Water is one of the vital needs of all living beings. Humans need water in many daily activities like drinking, washing, bathing, cooking etc. If the quality of water is not good then it becomes unfit for drinking and other activities. The quality of water usually described according to its physical, chemical and biological characteristics. Hence it becomes necessary to find the suitability of water for , irrigation and domestic purpose. The groundwater quality based on Sodium percent, Sodium Absorption Ratio and Residual Sodium Carbonate will help to identify the suitability of water for irrigation purpose. Rapid industrialization and use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides in agriculture are causing deterioration of water quality and depletion of aquatic biota. Due to use of contaminated water, human population suffers from water borne diseases. Parameters that may be tested include temperature, pH, turbidity, salinity, nitrates, TDS, Cations, Anions and phosphates. In this study the suitability of treated waste water quality for domestic and agricultural purposes was assessed based on the various water quality parameters. Treated waster is collected from the HN valley to analyse. The quality analysis is performed through the estimation of pH,TDS, total hardness, total alkalinity, Na, K, Cl, NO3, SO4, DO, BOD etc.
