Abstract

Physico-chemical characteristic study has been carried out on Fox Sagar
Lake water of Hyderabad City, Telangana State. Lake water from 14
different locations were collected and analyzed for parameters like pH,
Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Total Alkalinity
(TA), Total Hardness (TH), Calcium (Ca2+), Magnesium (Mg2+), Sulphate
(SO4
2-), Nitrate (NO3
2-), Fluoride (F-) and chloride (Cl−) levels. The analytical
results indicated that lake waters are slightly acidic to alkaline in nature and
found that the physico-chemical parameters of lake waters are higher than the
prescribed standard limits for drinking purposes (IS 10500: 2012).
