Spatial samples of surface and ground water
collected from land disposal site of dye waste mixed sewage
effluents at Binjhole, in Haryana, India were analyzed to
evaluate its effect on quality of pond, hand pumps and
ground waters for human health and irrigation purposes. It
was found that average COD and TDS of dye houses discharge
(310 and 3,920 mg/L) and treated sewage (428 and
1,470 mg/L) on mixing acquired the values of 245 and
1,780 mg/L and only Pb (0.24 lg/L) was above the permissible
limit for irrigation purpose. Disposal of this mixed
water to village pond changes the COD and TDS to 428 and
1,470 mg/L, respectively. COD and TDS of hand pump
water samples were 264 and 1,190 mg/L, where as in tube
well water these values were 151 and 900 mg/L. Though the
ground water contamination seemed to decrease with the
increasing distance from the pond but COD, TDS and BOD
values continued to be quite high in water samples drawn
from the hand pumps up to a distance of 500 m from pond. However, the major cause of the concern in these waters was
Pb (0.11–0.45 ppm). Crops grown with this water shows
accumulation of heavy metals like Pb,Cd, Fe, Mn, Ni, Cu,
and Zn but in few crops they (Zn, Pb and Cd) exceed the safe
limits. Regular consumption of these crop products may lead
heavy metal toxicity. It was concluded from this study that
the deep seepage of effluents led to deterioration of ground
water quality for drinking purposes and the well waters
rendered unfit for irrigation purposes within a span of
2 years. This warrants appropriate disposal measures for
sewage and dye industry effluents in order to prevent deterioration
of ground water and health of human and animals.
