Abstract

Another problem, which has a trend of increment parallel to the quantity problems faced in the ground water resources is the impairing ground water quality. The development of economic activities in Ergene basin are shifting from agriculture towards industry in an accelerated manner. The uncontrolled growth in textile sector, causes an extrime extraction of groundwater. Highquality changes and impairments were estimated in the groundwater. In this study, 51 samples were taken from boring holes belonging to the industrial site in Ergene basin. The groundwater in Ergene Basin was analyzed with regard to pH, alkalinity, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, total hardness, chloride, total iron and silicium dioxide. Afterwards, compliance with the standards was checked. According to the analysis results, average values in the water samples, pH 6.9-9.0, total alkalinity 100-380 mg/l, electrical conductivity 265-1295 µS / cm, TDS 125-620 mg/l, total hardness 66-500 mgCaCO3/l, chloride 30-250 mg/l, total iron 0.01-0.25 mg/l, silicium dioxide 2.2-43.9 mg/l.
