Attempt is made to understand the impact of tanneries on ground water quality of Unnao. Study was undertaken to evaluate physico-chemical parameters and chromium, lead iron concentration in ground water near tannery industries. The results revealed that only two parameters fluoride and chromium are present in slight high concentration than permissible limit. Ground water quality % sample compliance / violation with respect to BIS standard were also studied.

Hydroponic cultivation of melon plants with a fertigation system using ground water is one of the cultivation technologies that is expected to improve the quality and production of crops. Fertigation technology (fertilizer and irrigation) using autopot is an irrigation system allow to provide irrigation water by self-watering system by not using electric power so that the fertigation system is more efficient. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the impact of groundwater quality on the quality of melon (Cucumis melo L.) plants. The research method used is descriptive method. The quality parameters of the melon used in this study were water content, carbohydrate, protein, fat, ash, vitamin C and sweetness (% brix). The results of research on ground water quality show that the quality of ground water used is included in the category of non-polluted, which means that the water has good quality. The results showed the quality of melon has an average value of 95.19% fruit water content, 1.99% carbohydrate content, 1.37% protein content, 0.88% fat content, 0.57% ash content, vitamin C 6 , 91%, and total dissolved solids (sweetness) 9.4 0brix. The quality of the melon is classified as low quality according to SNI 7883-2013. The results of the ground water quality and the quality of the melon shows if the ground water affects the quality of the melon plants.

In the present work, characterization of leachate from an open dumpsite, Jawaharnagar, Rangareddy district, Telangana and its effects on surrounding ground water was investigated. A total of one leachate sample and twelve ground water samples were collected during pre-monsoon and post-monsoon seasons(2015) for monitoring purpose. All the samples were analyzed for physico-chemical parameters(pH, TDS, TH, CH, Cl-, SO4-2, NO3- and F-) as per standard procedures(APHA). Results indicate that, only pH and sulphates were found to be within the permissible limits in ground water recommended by WHO:2006. Total dissolved solids, Chlorides and Nitrate levels were found to be alarming in both pre and post monsoon. Water quality index(WQI) study also showed that most of the water samples fall in “Poor” and “Unsuitable” category. It is evident that the leachate from the municipal dumpsite is polluting the ground water at greater extent making them unsuitable for drinking purpose. Therefore, immediate measures should be taken to control the leachate contamination in the ground water.
