WATER QUALITY INDEX OF COAL MINE DRAINAGE OF SURAKACHHAR UNDERGROUND COAL MINE, DISTRICT KORBA, CHATTISGARH, INDIA DURING MONSOONAnjana Chaudhuri, Shikha Shrivastava and Divya Kumudini MinjAbstract Coal as a source of thermal energy has many good and bad effects. As coal water drainage is used in public sector so this attempt to focus effect of coal mine drainage water in public water resource. In this study water sample from underground coalmine of Surakachhar district Korba Chhattisgarh were collected during monsoon, and were analysed to focus water quality of water. About sixteen physiochemical parameters were taken to evaluate the water quality of coal mine water. Parameters like pH, Alkanity, TotaI Hardness, Chlorides, Fluorides, BOD, COD. DO, Nitrates, Sulphate, TDS, Electrical Conductivity etc. Present study shows the Water Quality Index of sample collected from coal mine, of Surakachhar, The water quality Index shows the water is not fit for drinking. |
