Assessment of Groundwater Quality, with special reference to Fluoride Contamination in Bhopalpatnam Block, District Bijapur,Chhattisgarh, India

摘要


Groundwater samples were collected for physico-chemical analysis during pre-monsoon period (May, 2015) from fluoride affected Bhopalpatnam block, District-Bijapur. The major objective of this study was to locate the vulnerable areas of fluoride contamination. The results reveal that the fluoride concentration in the existing groundwater in Bijapur-District is ranging from 0.1 to 3.58 mg/l. It is found that the study area is affected mostly by high Fluoride concentration and is evident from the 59% of total samples collected showing >1.5 mg/l of Fluoride concentration, which is a maximum permissible limit suggested by Bureau of Indian Standard [9].The evaluation of physico-chemical parameters reflects that weathering of granitic rocks are responsible for major ion chemistry of groundwater in Bhopalpatnam area. This study will be helpful in solving problem related to drinking water in the study area.
