Estimation of Ground Water Quality for Impact Assessment of Fluoride Content on Human Being in Bagalkot Taluk of Bagalkot District, Karnataka
Abstract: The chemical parameters of groundwater play a significant role in classifying and assessing water quality. The main objective of the present research work is to discuss the major ion chemistry of groundwater of Bagalkot taluk and further investigating the impact of fluoride content on human being by drinking ground water in selected 41 villages and one urban center of Bagalkot taluk. For assessment of water quality collected from the randomly …

Hydraulics of Flow Through and Over Fayoum Weir with Rectangular Bottom Openings
Abstract: Fayoum standard weirs have been modified by adding number of bottom openings to convey much water to downstream direction. This study aims to investigate the effects of using different configurations of Fayoum weirs with rectangular bottom openings on flow characteristics under different dimensions and number of openings. 46 weir configurations with height of 25 cm were used in this study, divided into four groups A, B, C and D. Each …

Investigation of Miniature Venturi Flume
Abstract: A venturi flume is a device used to measure discharge in open channel. It consists of a convergent section followed by throat and a diverging section. The venturi flume normally occupies full width of channel on actual field. The present study proposes a new design of miniature venturi flume with reduction in width. The width reduction ratios of miniature flume to channel width (b/B) considered in the project are 0.33, …

Hydrochemical Characterization and Evaluation of Groundwater Quality of Delhi Region
Abstract: A hydrochemical study was conducted in Delhi to identify the chemical composition of ground water and water quality with respect to drinking purpose. 22 groundwater samples from various locations in Delhi region were investigated. The various physic-chemical parameters such as pH, total dissolved solids, total hardness, calcium, magnesium, total alkalinity, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, sulphate, sodium and iron were determined. Piper diagram and water quality index were used to determine hydrochemical …

Assessment of Major Ion Chemistry in Ground Water and Surface Water of Kailana Lake Area of Jodhpur (Rajasthan)
Abstract: The aim of the present study was the assessment of the major ion chemistry of ground water and surface water of Kailana lake area, Jodhpur (Rajasthan). Various parameters of water quality were analyzed such as pH, electric conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), bicarbonate, silca, phosphate, sulphate, chloride, fluoride, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and heavy metals (copper, lead, manganese, nickel and zinc). Piper diagram for ground water during pre-monsoon and …
