Abstract

Unwanted changes in the physical, chemical, and biological features of air, water, and soil pose a serious hazard to people all over the world. Water is highly polluted with various dangerous chemicals as a result of the rising human population, industry, fertilizer use, and man-made activity. Weathering of rocks and leaching of soils, mining processes, mixing of different domestic contaminants (detergents), and other factors contaminate natural water. Because of the usage of contaminated drinking water, various water-borne diseases affect human health; therefore it is vital to monitor the quality of drinking water at regular intervals. This study comprises a water assessment using Physico-chemical parameters. This research data has been collected from Jamwa-Ramgarh, Virat Nagar, Bassi, and Amber tehsil in the Jaipur district during the study period (2019-2022). This paper has included appropriate methodologies for the determination of Physico-chemical parameters. Temperature, acidity, hardness, pH, sulfate, chloride, DO, BOD, COD, alkalinity, and other physicochemical parameters are calculated because they all are necessary to analyze water quality. the determination of the concentration of certain heavy metals(Fe, Zn, Cd, Cu), is also included in this paper because these heavy metals are dangerous to water species and also produce poison inside the water.
