Abstract

The water has been deserved for the betterment of the environment. Major sources of water were lakes, ponds,
rivers, streams. Lake water plays a vital role in Tamil Nadu for villages andtaluks as the major source for drinking,
agriculture and irrigation purposes. In this paper an interrogation has been made for the physical and chemical assessment
of lake water in Sulur Taluk, Coimbatore District of Tamil Nadu. The samples were collected from the sulur lake and
examined for the physical and chemical properties such as pH, Temperature, Alkalinity, Electrical conductivity, Turbidity,
DO, Biochemical oxygen demand, COD, Total Hardness, Calcium Hardness, Magnesium Hardness, Sulphates, Chlorides,
Total Solids, Total Fixed Solids. The experimental values were tabulated and compared withIS 10500:2012, CPCB. The
values for turbidity, Magnesium Hardness, Sulphates and BOD were resulted that exceeding thelimits IS 10500:2012, CPCB.
The lake water was recommended for treatment
