Abstract As a screening procedure, gross alpha and gross beta activity have been developed to determine whether further analysis of water samples related to specific radionuclide is necessary. In China, the determination of gross alpha and gross beta in drinking water was generally based on the HJ standard method: HJ 898-2017, water quality — determination of gross alpha activity — thick source method, and HJ 899-2017, water quality — determination of gross beta activity — thick source method. In this study, 15 water samples from Bahe river in Chan Ba region of Xi’an in China, were pretreated and analyzed by BH1216-III low background alpha and beta scintillation counter. The water samples were collected nearby residential area, wetland park, water conservation district and urban sewage treatment plant as well as other important locations which probably influence on the radioactivity level. The values of the activity concentrations of the gross alpha and beta measured in the water samples ranged from less than LD to 0.183Bq/L with a mean of 0.077Bq/L and 0.073–0.151Bq/L with a mean 0.102Bq/L respectively. All values of samples were lower than the limit level of 0.500Bq/L for gross alpha and 1.000Bq/L for gross beta, indicating that the radioactivity level in Bahe water between Chan Ba region of Xi’an is basically within the normal environmental background.

A research was carried out to assess the suitability of surface water for irrigation purposes. For this reason, 56 samples of surface water were collected from each union of Dinajpur sadar upazilla, Dinajpur. The analysis was included pH, EC, TDS, Ca, Mg, S, P, Na, K, Cl- and HCO3- to evaluate the suitability of surface water for irrigation purposes. Almost all the water samples were within the recommended pH value for irrigation and a great impact on crop production. With respect to electrical conductivity (EC) samples were low to medium salinity. For total dissolved solids (TDS), all samples were considered as freshwater for irrigation. On the basis of Ca, Mg, S, P, Na, K, Cl- and HCO3- all samples could safely be used for irrigation and would not affect the soils.

Tanggulangin is one of the sub-districts in Sidoarjo district affected by Lapindo mudflow caused by oil drilling system error located in the area of Siring, Porong. Therefore it had impacted the water quality in around Lapindo mudflow area. The aim of this research was to analysis the levels of water Cr (VI) Tanggulangin district. Water sample was analyzed by spectrophotometer with wavelength of 540 nm and done using two (2) steps ,which were(1) establishment of standard curve and (2) determination of Cr (VI) in water. Ten (10) water samples were taken from various villages in the subdistrict Tanggulangin. Based on the results on level of water chromium VI [Cr (VI)] analyze showed 4 of 10 samples had levels of water Cr (VI)higher than standard 0,05 mg/L (PP No.82 tahun 2001), those sample were 1, 3,4 and 10.
