“…Through the results, it is clear that the average values of the total hardness ranged between (820-1120) mg / l during the study period, as it reached its lowest value in site No. ( 1) and its highest value in site ( 9), due to the reason for the presence of total hardness in water to positive ions, especially calcium and magnesium ions 15 As the presence of calcium and magnesium ions depends on the geological nature of the land in which or through which water flows 16 Table (2) and Figure (7) show the average values.…”

The research assessed the quality of mineral water in some sulfur springs in the Nineveh governorate, which are located in the Hammam Al-Alil sub-district on the right bank of the Tigris River. For that, monthly samples were collected from each site (45) water samples at a rate of (9) samples every month from three springs (3 samples \ Appointed) for five months from November (2020) until March (2021). The research aims to conduct a monthly study of water quality by conducting physical and chemical tests for the water of these springs, which included Temperature, Electrical Conductivity, Total Dissolved Solids, pH, Total Hardness, Total Alkalinity, Sulfate Ions, Phosphate Ions, Oils and Greases, as well as the tests. Biological measurement of the Total Count of bacteria. Where the temperature values ranged between (30.6-36.6) m, the Electrical Conductivity ranged between (2050.9-2688.4) μmoz/cm, while the values of Total Dissolved Solids were between (1025.4-2761) mg/liter, and the pH was between (6.8-7.3), concerning Total Hardness, its concentrations ranged between (820-1120) mg/liter during the study period, and the results showed that the Total Alkalinity concentrations were between (552-912) mg/liter in terms of calcium carbonate CaCO3, while the Sulfate and Phosphate ions were Between (1485 - 1712.1) and (0.020-0.069) mg/liter, respectively during the study period, the results indicated that the concentrations of oils and grease were between (0.08-0.27) mg/liter and finally the Total Count of bacteria ranged during the study period between (1.5 - 28) 10x5 cells. Ml -1.

“…Groundwater is one of the most important freshwater resources, as it helps to sustain various aspects of human and agricultural ecosystems (Satyanarayana et al 2016;Etikala et al 2020). On a regional and local scale, it is also a key source of fresh water supply in hard rock terrains (Satheeshkumar and Chaudhary 2018).…”

Groundwater is a major valuable asset, which helps to sustain human ecology, particularly in crystalline terrains. Hence, proper quality monitoring of groundwater is a crucial task in understanding its suitability for drinking water and irrigation water practices. For this, fifty groundwater samples were taken and evaluated for physical, chemical characteristics and major ions during in pre and post-monsoon seasons. The results obtained were compared with IS 10500 standard which shows more than 80% of the samples in both seasons were unfit for drinking. The obtained results were checked to know the irrigation suitability. It is found that most of the samples (80%) were fit for agricultural practices in both seasons. The major water facies were CaCl, mixed CaMgCl and NaCl water types in pre and post-monsoon seasons. The spatial distribution diagrams of the major ions were high concentration in Northern areas followed by Western and South-Western portions. As per the groundwater quality of pollution index (GQPI), most of the study region (62 percent) comes under the low contamination zone and the rest (38 percent) under the moderate to unacceptable zone in drinking water specifications. Factor analysis reveals that the study region which predominant of weathering of silicate minerals, ion exchange and anthropogenic inputs of major contamination of groundwater quality.

“…The major ion data of groundwater samples were used to understand the hydro-geochemical processes dominant in the study area (Elango L, 2003). The Electrical conductivity and Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR) using the US Salinity diagram and the parameter Residual Sodium Carbonate (RSC) were used to quantify groundwater quality for irrigation purposes (Nagarju et al, 2017;Etikala et al 2020). Overall, the water quality data was utilized to determine the presence of toxic elements, particularly those originating from geogenic sources that may be responsible for developing CKD in the area's human population.…”

The current study's goal is to discover the geochemical analysis of groundwater in the uddanam area of the Srikakulam district of Andhra Pradesh, India. In the current study area, 50 groundwater samples were collected and analyzed for physicochemical properties such as cations, anions, total hardness, conductivity, and alkalinity. This was assessed for its suitability for drinking and irrigation purposes by calculating pH, EC, TDS, hardness, and alkalinity in addition to major cations (Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+) and anions (HCO3-, Cl-, SO42-, NO32-, F-). Chemical indices such as SAR, percent Na, permeability index, RSC, Kelly's Ratio, Magnesium Ratio, and Non-carbonate hardness (NCH) have been calculated based on the analytical results. Water with high alkalinity may be aesthetically unfit for drinking, whereas water with high TDS and TH may not be recommended for consumption by people suffering from kidney and related diseases. Geogenic, anthropogenic influence, agricultural activity, and mineral dissolution, Presence of high TDS and TH levels were the primary causes for chronic kidney disease (CKD), not suitable for drinking and irrigation purposes.
