STATUS OF IRON AND FLUORIDE POLLUTION IN SOME PARTS OF DISTRICT UNNAO, U.P., INDIA

Abstract

Ground water is one of the important sources for drinking water and is also used for other purposes. With the explosion in human population, the demand for ground water is on the increase. The suitability of ground water for potable purposes is judged, from the health standpoint, on the types of minerals dissolved in it. We report herein that the ground water sources in some parts of district Unnao in U.P. contain iron and fluoride ions in quantities which are outside the permissible limits laid down by the Bureau of Indian standards.
