Description :
The present investigation was carried out to study the physicochemical parameters of ground
water and its suitability for domestic purpose from
Nildoh village, MIDC Hingna. The study area is
situated between 21.10

E and 9km west of Nagpur city. Samples were collected from ground
water resource i.e. Dug wells from three different locations and in different seasons during the year 2014

15.The parameters studied were pH, Electrical conductance, Turbidity, Total Dissolved solids, Total
Hardness, Magnesium, Total Alkalinity, Chloride, Sulphate, Fluoride, Iron. Most of the physicochemical
characters were within ISI permissible limit except t
he high concentration of Total Dissolved Solids and
Total Hardness of water which loses its potability and reduces the solubility of oxygen in water. Measures
to be taken in terms of groundwater quality management are required.
