Evaluation of uranium containing ground water quality and non-carcinogenic risk assessment in inhabitant of Bijapur District of Chhattisgarh, Central India

The present investigation focused on evaluation of uranium containing water quality and non-carcinogenic risk. The uranium was determined in the fifty-three groundwater samples ranged between 0.21 and 10.04 µg/L. The 30% of groundwater samples surpass the recommended limits (1.9 μg/L) and the chroni...

Description
Summary:The present investigation focused on evaluation of uranium containing water quality and non-carcinogenic risk. The uranium was determined in the fifty-three groundwater samples ranged between 0.21 and 10.04 µg/L. The 30% of groundwater samples surpass the recommended limits (1.9 μg/L) and the chronic daily intake also exceeded recommended reference dose (0.6 µg/kg/day) in 6–6% samples for Infant and Children while it was found 8% for adults. Uranium has showing a positive correlation with TDS, electrical conductivity, chloride, Total hardness, calcium, magnesium, and total alkalinity. This investigation creates awareness among the people about purity and quality of groundwater.
