Portable Water, Physicochemical Parameters, Groundwater QualityAbstract [English]
The important of managing the different aspects of the water, including its quality, quantity, transport processes, utilization and management becomes apparent when the supply of water, especially portable water is limited. This article is intended to be an introduction of the subject of groundwater. This study investigates the groundwater quality in Korea district of Chhattisgarh based on preselected 13 sample points. During the 2023-24 seasons, a total of 13 groundwater samples were obtained and analysed for significant physicochemical parameters. Comparison of finding against drinking water quality requirements by Indian standards for the maximum appropriate level of quality of drinking water (BIS), ICMR, USEPA, and WHO; some samples were not found to be suitable for human use.
