EXAMINATION OF SUBSURFACE WATER QUALITY NEAR MRK SUGAR FACTORY AT SETHIATHOPE, CUDDALORE DISTRICT, TAMILNADU Authors: T. Poonkundran
ABSTRACT
Estimate of physico-chemical parameters of subsurface water were carried out in a radius of 3
km from the MRK sugar factory area of sethiathope. Water samples were collected from
different location ofremote villages and characteristics for several water quality parameters
like pH, turbidity, odour, colour, total dissolved solid ,electrical conductivity, calcium,
magnesium, total hardness, sodium, potassium, iron, fluoride, nitrate, chloride and sulphate.
The examination represents that subsurface water near the MRK sugar factory region are not
fit for human consumption with regard to many parameters.
