Exploring The Intricate Correlations Among Physicochemical Parameters in The Groundwater of Gadarsi Village, Nestled in The Serene Landscape of Kurukshetra, Haryana, India.

All organisms depend on surface water or groundwater for their fundamental requirements. Groundwater can be an alternate source for use instead of surface water. For the long-term viability of the resource, a comprehensive evaluation is necessary. This research aims to investigate the groundwater quality of Gadarsi village in Kurukshetra District, Haryana. The study was conducted by collecting 10 samples from different houses to evaluate the groundwater quality using physicochemical parameters during the post-monsoon season of 2022. Water quality parameters include temperature, pH, EC, total dissolved solids (TDS), turbidity, and heavy metals. Cadmium (Cd), Chromium (Cr), Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn), Iron (Fe), and Lead (Pb) were analysed using standard methods. Results showed that the range of pH ranged from 7.2– 8.4,(8.06±0.4), temp 19.47-24.070C (22.14±1.10), TDS 528-792 mg/l, (675±87.2), EC 869-1302 µS cm-1 (1110 ± 143.43), Turbidity 0.02-0.23 NTU (0.15 ±0.06), Na ion 8.7-13.33 mg/l (10.83 ±1.17), K ion 2.7-5 mg/l (4.23 ±0.7), Cl ion 91-.111.7 mg/l (102 ±7.21), Bicarbonate ion 51.7-139.3 mg/l (113.9 ±23.47), Total hardness 289.3-316 mg/l (303.7 ±6.99), Ca ion 213-242 mg/l (227.4 ±8.86), Mg ion 63-84.7 mg/l (76.4 ±6.28), Sulphate ion -23.23-35.4 mg/l (33.52 ±3.68), Phosphate ion 0.02-8 mg/l (5.8 ±2.19), Nitrate ion 39.7-86.1 mg/l (70.73±16.43), Fluoride ion 0-2.13 mg/l (1.07 ±0.50), Fe ion 00-2.13 mg/l (0.013±0.016), Cu ion 0.0 – 0.1 (0.04±0.042), Zn ion 0.0- .72 mg/l (0.223 ±0.28) and heavy metals such as Cd, Cr, and Ni and As were below the detection limit. All the parameters were below the WHO (2012) permissible limit for drinking water.

Abstract

All organisms depend on surface water or groundwater for their fundamental requirements. Groundwater can be an alternate source for use instead of surface water. For the long-term viability of the resource, a comprehensive evaluation is necessary. This research aims to investigate the groundwater quality of Gadarsi village in Kurukshetra District, Haryana. The study was conducted by collecting 10 samples from different houses to evaluate the groundwater quality using physicochemical parameters during the post-monsoon season of 2022. Water quality parameters include temperature, pH, EC, total dissolved solids (TDS), turbidity, and heavy metals. Cadmium (Cd), Chromium (Cr), Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn), Iron (Fe), and Lead (Pb) were analysed using standard methods. Results showed that the range of pH ranged from 7.2– 8.4,(8.06±0.4), temp 19.47-24.070C (22.14±1.10), TDS 528-792 mg/l, (675±87.2), EC 869-1302 µS cm-1 (1110 ± 143.43), Turbidity 0.02-0.23 NTU (0.15 ±0.06), Na ion 8.7-13.33 mg/l (10.83 ±1.17), K ion 2.7-5 mg/l (4.23 ±0.7), Cl ion 91-.111.7 mg/l (102 ±7.21), Bicarbonate ion 51.7-139.3 mg/l (113.9 ±23.47), Total hardness 289.3-316 mg/l (303.7 ±6.99), Ca ion 213-242 mg/l (227.4 ±8.86), Mg ion 63-84.7 mg/l (76.4 ±6.28), Sulphate ion -23.23-35.4 mg/l (33.52 ±3.68), Phosphate ion 0.02-8 mg/l (5.8 ±2.19), Nitrate ion 39.7-86.1 mg/l (70.73±16.43), Fluoride ion 0-2.13 mg/l (1.07 ±0.50), Fe ion 00-2.13 mg/l (0.013±0.016), Cu ion 0.0 – 0.1 (0.04±0.042), Zn ion 0.0- .72 mg/l (0.223 ±0.28) and heavy metals such as Cd, Cr, and Ni and As were below the detection limit. All the parameters were below the WHO (2012) permissible limit for drinking water.
