Konya Yolu ? Çayyolu arasındaki (Ankara) akiferlerde yeraltı suyu kalitesinin incelenmesi

This study covers the investigation of groundwater quality in aquifers between Konya Highway and Çayyolu Road (Ankara). The pH, temperature and the electrical conductivity parameters of the groundwater samples collected from wells were calculated on site, and their cation and anion analyses have been carried out in the laboratory. By using graphical methods, the results are interpreted in comparison to standards and regulation.After the water chemistry data from the research area are evulated by drawing Piper, Schoeller, Wilcox and US Salinity Laboratory diagrams, it is determined that the domiant hydrochemical facies in the underground waters are sodium and bicarbonate type.Other than the standard parameters, boron and fluoride analysis are also conducted on water samples, and the results are compare again with drinking and irrigation waters.Within the framework of hydrogeological studies, hydrogeological formation in the region have been determined. Comparative study between the geological characteristics of the region and the mineral saturation of the waters were used to interpret which water conduits the water samples came from and to which geology these water conduits belong.Although the results of this study are not sufficient enough to determine whether the water samples can be used as drinking water or not; the results are also evaluate against drinking water standards to give a general idea.
