Ground Water Eminence Chemical Analysis in Gulbarga City: A Physiochemical Perspective

This study aims at assessing the physiochemical variation of groundwater quality in Gulbarga city, rivers state India. The level of chemical concentration in the groundwater sample was analysed using the flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The quality of the borehole was analysed using a physical visibility survey. Groundwater samples from 5 locations in Gulbarga city was collected from public boreholes namely Zilla, Kusanoor, Sirasagi, Sultanpur and Nandikoor. Analysis of the groundwater samples was carried out in the Laboratory to ascertain the physical, chemical and microbiological characteristics. After due analysis, it was observed that most of the groundwater samples were still within permissible limits with little differences across the different locations. The temperature of the groundwater samples was different in Zilla and Sultanpur as their temperatures were not within the permissible limits of WHO. PH of the groundwater samples were also slightly different in Zilla, Kusanoor and Nandikoor with PH values of 5.20, 5.34 and 5.28 respectively. It was discovered that little treatment is needed in the study area since most of the values fall within the permissible limits of WHO.
