The purpose of this study is to anticipate and investigate the groundwater quality in the regions of the Cauvery basin. In the post-monsoon season of 2020, 800 samples were collected from 200 different places for this paper. The AlexNet model is used in this book to forecast the water quality. In...

Groundwater is a vital resource for human consumption. The study aimed to evaluate toxic metal concentrations in groundwater systems and determine pollutant sources using multivariate methods including cluster analysis (CA), principal factor analysis (PCA), and Pearson correlation coefficient (r)...

Groundwater sources play an important role in meeting the day today needs of the present generation. Frequent monitoring of the ground water source plays an important part. The aim of this study is to analyze the quality of the ground water in and around the solid waste dumpsite near Sathyamangalam...

Urbanized areas groundwater vulnerability and contamination are serious issues that require due attention. There are other models, notably the DRASTIC models employed to assess the vulnerability of groundwater. In a modified version of the DRASTIC model known as anthropogenic influence was...

The dumping of solid waste in uncontrolled landfills can cause significant impacts on the environment and human health. The open dumps cause the formation of leachate which contaminated the groundwater; use of these groundwater reported danger to the human health. The goal of groundwater protection...

An approach was used in this study to relate the predicted and calculated water quality index (WQI) of the Brahmani River. The WQI was predicted using an artificial neural network (ANN) tool, and the weighted Arithmetic Index technique was used to calculate the WQI (WAI). The WQI is calculated using...

In this work, the aryldiazonium salts radical addition method has been used successfully to anchor 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) moieties onto the surface of Amberlite XAD-4 beads. The nitroaniline aryldiazonium salt was generated (in-situ) and covalently grafted onto Amberlite XAD-4 by aid of...

Groundwater is one of the important sources of drinking water In Jijel (northeastern Algeria). Various analyses have shown critical concentrations of lead and cadmium in several groundwater sources used for drinking. The aim of this study is to evaluate the contamination by lead and cadmium of...

Multivariate statistical analysis including cluster analysis, factor analysis and correlation coefficient was applied to the groundwater samples to understand the groundwater condition in Wadi Bani Malik area. Water samples collected from the study area were analysed for physical parameters, major...

The present study was aimed to evaluate the impact of leachate derived from uncontrolled municipal landfill on surrounding groundwater quality in Kolkata, India. Seasonal variation of twenty physico-chemical parameters in pre-monsoon (PRM) and post-monsoon (POM) season were analysed in forty...

Elemental sulphur (So) is produced at petroleum refineries as a byproduct and a decrease in So prices has forced tens of mega-tonnes of So to be stockpiled at industrial sites. However, long-term storage of So blocks poses a potential for contamination of surface water and groundwater because of the...

In the present study an attempt has been made to assess the seasonal ground water quality variations at Kancheepuram region, Tamil Nadu, India. In order to evaluate the seasonal ground water quality for drinking and irrigation purposes, 68 groundwater well data were collected and analyzed for...

Hydrogeologists in general and hydrogeochemists in particular are commonly asked to collect and interpret groundwater chemistry data for determining the groundwater quality at a particular site. More often, this involves graphical representation of data and a comparison with the drinking water...

An electrical resistivity survey was carried out in the premises of Chennai Metrowater Sewage treatment plants and Anna University to assess the suitability of underlying aquifer for reclaimed water recharge and also to understand groundwater conditions. The geo-electrical methods used in the survey...

This study examined the trends in anthropogenic chemical contaminants in groundwater samples in rural areas of Ebonyi State, South-eastern Nigeria. Groundwater samples were collected from Ezza North (a quarry mining area) and Ezza South (an agricultural/commercial area) and were analysed using...
