Abstract

• In the present work, the tube well water samples were collected from two different sampling sites of Thanlyin Technological University Campus in the months of July and December, 2016. The collected water samples were tube well water from Information Technology (IT) hall as sample (S1), tube well water in the Campus and reservoir as sample (S2). Determination of some physicochemical properties such as temperature, turbidity, conductivity, pH, total dissolved solids, total suspended solids, total alkalinity, total hardness, PO4-P, NO2-N, NH3-N, DO, BOD, COD, chloride and sulphate of all water samples were carried out by conventional methods. The contaminations of trace metals (Cd, Pb, Zn, Ca, Cu, Mg, Cr, Mn and Hg) in all water samples were determined by Atomic Absorption Spectrometer. Some microorganism were determined by Standard Plate Account and Most Probable Number method. The values of temperature, turbidity, total alkalinity, total hardness, TDS, TSS, conductivity, total phosphate, total nitrate, chloride, sulphate, COD and BOD of collected water samples were found to be lower than the EPA standard values. The trace elements of all water samples were found to be lower than EPA standard values. All water samples were not polluted but it can be used for cooking, bathing and other activities. However, It is safe for drinking purpose only after suitable treatment of water.
