Abstract

This work summarizes the findings of a comprehensive water quality assessment conducted in lalkhadan bilaspur. The assessment aimed to evaluate various parameters including Temperature, Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Hardness, pH, Turbidity, Chloride, Iron, Nitrate, and Fluoride in campus water sources as well as three other sources were selected just to know the variations and for comparison between our college campus samples and other three samples. Samples were collected from multiple locations and analyzed using standard methods to assess the suitability of water for human consumption and environmental health. Results indicated that the water temperature was within acceptable ranges for human use. TSS levels were found to be low, indicating good water clarity. Hardness measurements showed moderate levels of calcium and magnesium, potentially affecting water quality but remaining within permissible limits. pH values were suitable an within the range of 6.5-8.5 as per IS:10500.2012 for drinking purpose. Turbidity levels were low, indicating minimal suspended solids, only Arpa river sample showed slightly high value than the permissible limit. Chloride concentrations were within recommended limits, posing minimal risk of salinity impacts.
