Abstract

Impure drinking water is one of the significant concerns in metro cities of various countries. To deal the problems of ground water as various sources are negatively impacted by parameters of aesthetic concern, such as turbidity, conductivity, and iron content. Even though they do not affect human health, elevated levels of these parameters cause consumers to abandon improved water supply. Parameters like pH, hardness and chloride and sulphate content directly affect human health. It is need of time to find their levels before using it for any purpose. Water is essential constituent in agricultural sector for enhancing crop production, so we must redouble our efforts to increase agricultural productivity. This paper is based on study of qualitative and quantitative parameters for three different Groundwater samples at Sion, Thane &Kaylan cities in Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR). Ground water samples were collected in the month of September and March in the year 2018. Over the due course of time different parameters were checked for its suitability for its usage.
