Abstract

Urbanisation is major reason for the contamination of Ground Water (GW) due to the movement of people from rural area to urban areas. The GW quality worsening due to the water security issues in Erode by the rapid growth of number of Tannery and Dyeing industries around the city limits. These waters contain harmful chemicals and toxins which makes the water more degrades the quality of water which affects the aquatic animals and plants. Now a days, People in urban cities are exposed to more polluted water without realizing its potential danger to health. The Spatial analysis of GW which is determined by the values of pH, Turbidity, TDS, TSS, Alkalinity, Nitrate, Sulphate, Chlorides, Phosphates, Dissolved Oxygen, Chromium and Lead and mapping done with sample taken from different locations. The intensity of the chemical parameters above the permissible limits which cause disturbance in living beings. With the help of GIS technologies, identifies the areas where the ground water quality is depleted more. The GW is treated with help of Ceramic membranes as it has good chemical stability, as heavy metal plays a major role in water treatment. Heavy metal ion separations from contaminated water are all discussed as low-cost ceramic membrane applications. This study highlights the upcoming technologies and hurdles of updating low-cost ceramic membranes that aid the treatment of water pollution levels at various sampling locations in Erode municipal corporation with the goal of creating a water quality map identifying areas that are highly polluted using Arc GIS 10.3
