This document summarizes a study of groundwater quality in Shivapur Village, India. It includes the following key points:
1. The study aimed to analyze various water quality parameters like pH, TDS, alkalinity, chlorides, sulfates, hardness, conductivity, MPN and dissolved oxygen in samples from 4 wells in the village.
2. Methodology involved testing the samples for these 10 parameters and comparing the results to standards from organizations like BIS and WHO.
3. The overall results found that the groundwater quality was generally good, though supply could be increased, and wastewater treatment and rainwater harvesting were recommended to address water scarcity issues.

22. 9. Dissolved Oxygen Test
Fig- Milky white precipitate form
• While performing practical in laboratory , if we got the yellow colour in the
flask says DO is present & if we got the Milky white precipitate then, it is
totally DO is absent.
• There is no DO in ground water because there is no interface of atmosphere.

23. Fig- Iron Test for water Sample
Here we didn’t get any red colour, so there is not any amount of iron is present in water
sample.
It is fit for Drinking purpose.
The acceptable limit of iron in water = 0.3 mg/l

25. 6. Conclusions
• The overall ground water quality of this village is Good.
• Generally the scarcity of drinking water comes in the month of may.
• Usually the village without sewerage and with water supply system require
around 70 lpcd. But here the supply is only 40 to 50 lpcd. So, there should
be some provision to collect and treat the waste water, then use it for other
purposes like toilet etc.
• There is need to construct the barrage on the Shivganga river, for storing
the water and fulfill the demand of the people.
• They should adopt rain water harvesting system.
