Quality Analysis and Interpretation of Geochemical Characteristics of Ground Water around Munugode, Nalgonda district, Telangana

Abstract

The study's main goal is to assess the physical and chemical quality of ground water in Munugode for household, agricultural, and industrial use. Dissolved elements and their characteristics affect water quality. Chemical water analysis based on ion or ion group connections. Graphs relate chemical processes as groundwater movers and water groups with comparable evolutionary histories. Physical and chemical water qualities can aid with these concerns. Several computer programmes and software exist to plot and analyse water appropriateness. Piper's trilinear diagram comprises three fields: two triangular and one diamond-shaped. Lower left triangle shows ppm% values for calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium. Wilcox's diagram is used to identify irrigation water by graphing sodium percentage versus electric conductivity. Wilcox's graphic classifies bore and excavated well samples into four classes.
