“…The total amount of dissolved ions (TDS) in the water, are estimated using electrical conductivity (EC). The purity of water is estimate by EC and therefore it is a useful tool to check the purity of water [20,21]. An apparatus known as an electrical conductivity metre is used to measure EC.…”

“…Ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) technique is used to determine overall hardness. Maximum total hardness was measured at 297 mg/l in a residential area, while minimum total hardness was measured at 228 mg/l in a mining region [21]. According to equivalent CaCO3 content, the degree of hardness of drinkable water has been categorised as follows: Soft: 0-60 mg/l, Medium: 60-120 mg/l, Hard: 120-180 mg/l, and extremely hard: > 180 mg/l [22,23].…”

On this planet, water is one of the natural resources that are considered to be the most valuable. All living things, the majority of natural systems, human health, the production of food, and the growth of the economy all benefit from its presence. Water is becoming extremely polluted with a wide variety of toxins as a result of the rapid growth of the world's population, the spread of industry and improved agricultural methods, and other activities caused by humans. In the current scenario, the water from the river has turned into wastewater as a result of the removal of the garbage from the area through which it flows. Water is an essential resource for the continued existence of humans. The integrity of the water supply is critical to the maintenance of good health. A wide variety of pollutants, both chemical and microbiological, can compromise the quality of drinking water and make it unsafe to consume. These pollutants are the root of many significant health issues. Having access to clean water is crucial in the fight against disease and in the pursuit of improved personal satisfaction. This review paper discusses a variety of physicochemical parameters such as pH, Electrical conductivity, Total Hardness, Turbidity, B.O.D., C.O.D., Total alkalinity, Chloride, Sulphate, Phosphate and D.O. that are relevant to thinking about the quality of water.
