Assessment of Fluoride Concentration and water quality of Khadakpurna Reservoir of Buldana District, Maharashtra, India

Abstract

The aim of this research was to investigate the Fluoride concentration and Water quality of Khadakpurna Reservoir situated at Buldana District,Maharashtra. In this present study the Water quality with respect to Fluoride Concentration has been determined by collecting water sample of Khadakpurna Reservoir and subjecting it to a comprehensive physiochemical analysis. For assessing water quality pH, Alkalinity, chloride, nitrate, sulphate, turbidity, total dissolved solids, total hardness, iron, and fluorides have been considered. The higher values have been found to be mainly for Nitrate, Total hardness, Total dissolved solids and Turbidity. The analysis reveals that the water of the Reservoir needs some degree of treatment before consumption. The higher values of nitrate content indicates that it is badly affected by overuse of chemical fertilizers that contaminate the water and enhance the nitrate concentration in water. From the results it is clear that fluoride Concentration was found to be well within the permissible levels.
