We did hydrological survey of a lake which was originated with seepage water from a brown coal mine located in Murun soum, Khentii province. The objectives of this study were to determine water chemical properties and compare to standards and norms for water quality assessment and to know which propose we can use this seepage lake water. We took samples from the different depths of the lake.  According to the Alekhin classification the lake water is included in the hydrocarbonate class and the sodium group, with first type water. Seeing water quality, it is salty or highly mineralized (mineralization is 1600 mg /L at 3 m depth), very hard (total hardness is 18.7 mg-eqv /L, and carbonate hardness is 12.8 mg-eqv /L) water. This lake water contains several macro and micro elements exceeding allowable concentration of drinking water guidelines. Because of high salinity it seems not appropriable for cropland watering, although all elements’ concentration within the allowable concentration list. The lake water is partially possible for aquaculture and livestock use, after other detailed toxicological assessments are made.  Чандган тал хүрэн нүүрсний уурхайн шавхалтаас үүссэн нуурын усны химийн үзүүлэлтүүдийг судалсан дүн Бид Хэнтий аймгийн Мөрөн суманд орших хүрэн нүүрсний уурхайн шавхалтаас үүссэн нууранд гидрохимийн судалгаа хийсэн болно.

Lake water is important to all life and surroundings with multiples benefits and forms either in natural or man-made conditions. One of the most well-known tools for assessing the water quality is Water Quality Index (WQI) and widely used including Malaysia. Lake water quality should be represented in lucid way like other surface water regarding to the WQI standards for water quality assessment on lakes. This paper aims to review on lake water quality classification and its uses based on WQI standards in Malaysia. In this review, the uses of WQI for assessing the lake water and functioned of lakes are discussed. Results on pH from 5.0 to 9.2, BOD in mg/l from 0 to 180, COD in mg/l from 5 to 150, SS in mg/l from o to 1800, DO in mg/l from 0 to 8 and AN in mg/l N from -1 to 26. Variety of numbers is due to different loading of pollutions and location. With used of WQI on lake water quality assessments, further action can be taken for the uses on water resources by maintaining the quality. It also will broaden the uses of lake water as alternative of water resources in Malaysia.

Groundwater as a source of potable water is becoming more important in Nigeria. Therefore, the need to ascertain the continuing potability of the sources cannot be over emphasised. This study is aimed at assessing the quality of selected groundwater samples from Ilorin metropolis, Nigeria, using the water quality index (WQI) method. Twenty two water samples were collected, 10 samples from boreholes and 12 samples from hand dug wells. All these were analysed for their physico – chemical properties. The parameters used for calculating the water quality index include the following: pH, total hardness, total dissolved solid, calcium, fluoride, iron, potassium, sulphate, nitrate and carbonate. The water quality index for the twenty two samples ranged from 0.66 to 756.02 with an average of 80.77. Two of the samples exceeded 100, which is the upper limit for safe drinking water. The high values of WQI from the sampling locations are observed to be due to higher values of iron and fluoride. This study reveals that the investigated groundwaters are mostly potable and can be consumed without treatment. Nonetheless, the sources identified to be unsafe should be treated before consumption.KEYWORDS: groundwater, water quality index, potability, physico - chemical, parameter

The aim of present investigation was to analyze the variations in the physio-chemical properties of the ground water of Cuttack district Odisha. In the present study 98 samples were collected and analyzed to assess the quality of ground water. The pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total hardness and total alkalinity of the collected 98 samples were in the range of 4.6-7.3, 36-4550 μS/cm, 40-200 mgl-1, 20-680 mgl-1 respectively. Similarly, the other important water quality parameters such as; chloride, nitrate sulphate and phosphate concentration were varies between BDL-327, 1.8-86.25, BDL-194 and BDL to 3.2 mgl-1 respectively. The pH of the alluvial groundwater is controlled by the HCO3. The fluoride concentration was varies from BDL to 2.38 mgl-1. Apart from few samples, 90.81% fluoride contaminated samples comes under the category of quality group A (< 1 mgl-1flouride). Similarly, out of total samples collected only in three samples the uranium concentration estimated to be more than 5ppb. Among the water quality parameters there exist a positive correlation between pH and fluoride with a correlation coefficient of 0.641. From the correlation analysis it is found that, higher concentration of fluorid correlated with higher pH. Similarly the correlation coefficient between calcium and chloride is very high i.e. 0.500, which strongly supported the existence of calcium in the study area is predominantly in the form of CaCl2. Most of the ground water samples meet the requirements of the WHO drinking water standards with respect to salinity, main constituents and potentially toxic trace elements such as uranium
