A Quantitative Study of Fluoride in Ground Water Jodhpur, Rajasthan (India) and its Side Effect

Mustak ^[4] | Kailash Chand ^[2]

Abstract: All water sources have Fluoride in natural form. Fluoride rich water caused Fluorosis in human being. The quality of Ground water Jodhpur city degradation due to activity of human being such as Urbanization and Industrialization. In few last year’s industrial emissions have responsible for fluorosis. Fluoride is useful us but high concentration is very harmful for human life. High concentration of fluoride in ground water causes various diseases such as arthritis, seeking bone, growth of children and infertility disorders etc. Fluoride quality in Ground water is depressed since last years. We would investigate the physico-chemical properties of the fluoride ions concentrations and distributions in Jodhpur City ground water. Ten ground water samples were collected during pre-monsoon 2018 from different hand pumps and open well to study the chemical parameter, such as pH, EC and fluoride by different analytical techniques. It has been observed that values are higher compared to WHO and BIS standards.
