Abstract

Water quality is a consequence of the natural, physical and chemical state of the water as well as any alterations that may have occurred as interference by human activity. The minerals contained in soils and rocks are also commonly responsible for the type of quality of ground water in a region. Quality of ground water has gained much importance as its quantity. Growing population, urbanization, industrialization, increased social and agricultural activities are increasing the demand of potable groundwater, as such making us to think of water in terms of quality.
