Chemical Guality Evaluation Ground water Meghnagar, Jhabua district, Madhya Pradesh in IndiaAbstract
The document presents an account of chemical quality delineation of ground water suitability for human applicators of Meghnagar study area, Jhabua district, Madhya Pradesh in India for the diverse applications. The main objective concerns to assess the ground water quality in vicinity of study area, and to delineate its suitability for domestic and, drinking applications. The representative twenty five ground water samples were collected from the open dug wells, existing in Meghnagar study area. These water samples were subjected to chemical analysis with principal objective to delineate the ground water quality for human applications Piper trilinear diagram indicates the delineation of ground water quality and reveals its suitability for The present work has been carried out with main objectives: to assess the ground water quality in vicinity of study area, and to delineate its suitability for domestic and drinking applications. It clearly shows the similarities and difference among ground water samples because those with similar qualities will tend to plot together as groups. The comparison of analyzed values with the recommended limits by Bureau of Indian Standards and World Health Organization reveal that ground water is suitable for drinking and domestic applications
