- Water samples were collected for physico-chemical analysis from different sites in the polluted pond (Purle water body), Shivamogga city (Karnataka). The water samples were analysed for various parameters such as water temperature, pH, total alkalinity, total dissolved solids, suspended solids, total solids, chloride, phosphate, calcium and magnesium hardness, total hardness and dissolved oxygen. By comparing the results against drinking water quality standards laid by WHO, it is observed that water samples from this pond were non-potable for human consumption due to high levels of physico-chemical parameters.
