The Procedure of Evaluation of Water Quality Using Different Physico-chemical Parameters

Abstract

By identifying the causes of water pollution, water quality evaluation seeks to maintain and advance human health as well as other aspects of social and economic development. After air, water is arguably the most valuable natural resource. Although the majority of the earth’s surface is made up of water, relatively little of it is exploitable, making it a very scarce resource. Therefore, care must be taken when using this valuable and finite resource. Water must be suitable before usage because it is used for a variety of uses. Additionally, water sources must be routinely checked to see if they are sound or not. Water bodies in poor condition are not just a sign of environmental degradation, additionally, it endangers the ecology. In industries, poor water quality can result in risks and significant financial loss. Unwanted changes in the physical, chemical, and biological features of air, water, and soil pose a serious threat to humanity. Because of the growing human population, industrialization, fertilizer use, and other human-made activities, water is heavily contaminated with many dangerous chemicals. Natural water pollution is caused by the weathering of rocks, soil leaching, mining operations, etc. Since the human population contracts a variety of waterborne diseases because of using contaminated drinking water, the quality of the water must be examined regularly. Consequently, water quality is crucial for both environmental and economic reasons. Analysis of the water’s purity is therefore necessary before using it for any purpose. After many years of study, there are already certain established techniques for water quality analysis. There are rules for sample collection, storage, and analysis. Here, the typical chain of events is briefly outlined for the benefit of researchers and analysts.
